These rewarding and varied full-time teaching assistant roles will start in September 2026.

Roles for university graduates and Level 3 qualified teaching assistants are available in both primary and secondary settings in Croydon. However experience working with children in other environments (such as in youth groups, volunteering or in a personal capacity) will also be considered. Excellent numeracy and literacy skills are essential for teaching assistant roles in Croydon.
