  • About The Role

  • Are you passionate about helping children thrive and reach their full potential?

    We’re looking for a supportive, enthusiastic, and motivated Teaching Assistant to join our team from September 2026.

     

    About the Role

    As a Teaching Assistant at Ark Tindal Primary Academy, you will play a vital role in supporting pupils to grow, learn, and succeed. Working as part of a dedicated team, you will help create a positive and inclusive learning environment where every child feels supported and encouraged to reach their full potential.

    You will provide hands-on support both in and out of the classroom, assisting with learning activities, guiding pupils through their work, and offering encouragement to build confidence and independence. Your role will involve working closely with teachers to help deliver engaging lessons, as well as supporting individual pupils and small groups to ensure they can fully access their learning.

    Beyond academic support, you will contribute to the wider development of pupils by promoting positive behaviour, supporting their social and emotional wellbeing, and acting as a consistent and caring adult role model. This is a rewarding opportunity to make a meaningful difference in children’s lives while being part of a collaborative and supportive school community.

  • About Us

  • Our vision at Ark Tindal is to provide an exceptional education that inspires all children to flourish into confident, successful and well-rounded individuals. We have a strong focus on character development and pastoral well-being, as well as the academic curriculum. We are a two-form entry primary school and getting to know our children and families is at the heart of everything we do. We offer support to the community, and we hold regular events which enable parents and carers to share in the life of the school and in their children’s learning. 

    Ark Tindal is a nurturing, exciting and innovative place to learn and to teach. "Team Tindal" is a strong community, and our staff see themselves as one big family. We take staff wellbeing seriously, recognise the importance of effective communication and do what we can to support our team. We are committed to the development of our staff and have an extensive professional development offering, which enables us to work to our highest potential.

    You will also be part of Ark’s thriving hub of primary and secondary schools in Birmingham working with regional teams, which offer additional guidance and support in aspects of the role.

    Staff say that this is an exciting place to work where they are lucky to be part of a supportive and welcoming team.

    'I have never been so well equipped in my role – CPD is taken seriously, and I have access to a broad range of training.’

    Visitors say that our children are polite, hard-working, inquisitive and charming.  The exemplary behaviour of pupils is often remarked upon.

    Children tell us that they feel safe and happy and look forward to coming to school each day.  Parents are grateful for the opportunities to get involved that help them to support their children.

    Diversity and inclusion:

    We aim to build a diverse and inclusive organisation where everyone – staff and students – can do their best work and achieve their full potential. We want to reflect and represent diverse perspectives across our organisation because we know that doing so will make us stronger and more effective.

    Safeguarding statement:

    Ark is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people in its academies. In order to meet this responsibility, its academies follow a rigorous selection process to discourage and screen out unsuitable applicants. 

    Ark requires all employees to undertake an enhanced DBS check. You are required, before appointment, to disclose any unspent conviction, cautions, reprimands or warnings under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975. Non-disclosure may lead to termination of employment. However, disclosure of a criminal background will not necessarily debar you from employment - this will depend upon the nature of the offence(s) and when they occurred.
