A school in the Kingston borough are searching for passionate speech and language teaching assistants who are determined to make a positive change in children’s education. Working with this school provides great opportunities, for experienced teaching assistants, to further their knowledge on working with children who have speech and language difficulties.

Skills required for this role :

• Creativity, to make learning personalised to the child you are working with
• Excellent listening skills, so you are aware of the children’s needs
• Ability to be sensitive and understanding
• Good communication skills, so you can build strong relationships with the children you are working with.
