About the Role:
Aspire People is seeking Early Career Teachers (ECTs) to join our partner primary schools as Higher Level Teaching Assistants (HLTAs).

* Early Career Teachers who have recently completed a Primary PGCE with QTS
* Passionate about working with primary-aged children
* Motivated to gain experience and develop skills in a supportive environment
* DBS on the Update Service
* References covering the last 2 years

What We Offer:
* Full-time, long-term roles from September 2026
* Opportunities to build teaching experience while supporting learning
* Potential to transition into a permanent teaching role
* Work in a welcoming and supportive primary school
* A recruitment day in mid-June, offering a chance to see the school, meet the team, and learn more about the role
* Aspire People has a track record of successful placements and recruitment days leading to permanent staff positions
