Support staff

Support staff are playing an increasingly important role in schools and other education institutions nationwide.

Recent government initiatives such as Remodelling of the School Workforce and the Workload Agreement have placed much emphasis on support workers. It is acknowledged that the support workers will play a crucial role in the delivery of such initiatives and be significant players in the continuing drive to raise standards.

The emphasis on support workers has led to an increasing demand nationwide and Supreme Education has been instrumental in helping many schools find highly skilled and able individuals, suited to the varied support staff roles.

We will recruit for the following support roles:

• Teaching Assistant.
• Higher Level Teaching Assistant.
• Cover Supervisor.
• Learning Support Assistant.
• Special Needs Support Assistant.
• Primary Support Assistant.
• Secondary Support Assistant.
• And more...

Looking for Teaching Assistants

Supreme Education has led the way in recruiting and placing skilled and experienced teaching support staff.

With increasing government funding available to schools for teaching assistants from September 2005, we intend to establish a unique, expanding database of experienced staff. Support staff will be able to use the full functionality of our automated technology to search for school vacancies.

If you are looking to boost teacher and pupil support then we have options for one-to-one or whole class support, with staff who can undertake administrative and various classroom tasks, including:

• Qualified, trained teaching assistants (e.g. CLANSA, Diploma in Childcare?).
• Experienced childcare workers, including NNEB-qualified.
• Graduates with subject specific degrees.
• Skilled and dedicated SEN staff.

Teaching staff provided by Supreme Education have been interviewed, referenced and checked to the highest professional standards. Our aim is to match the right person to the right school environment.

Our professional recruitment teams operate to the highest standards. We hold BS EN ISO 9002 quality accreditation and adhere to the REC (Recruitment and Employment Confederation) Code of Practice for Education. Our procedures include:

• Individual face to face interviews with all teachers.
• Professional, personal service to all schools (including direct visits to ascertain school's culture, ethos and specific requirements.)
• Comprehensive security checks: POCAL (Protection of Children Act List which includes List 99); criminal convictions/police checks.
• Verbal and written references (minimum of two per candidate Qualifications checks).
• ID checks.
