EAL Teaching Assistant - Secondary School - Watford
Pay: 105-120 per day (umbrella)
Start: ASAP

I'm looking for an EAL Teaching Assistant to join a supportive secondary school in Watford. This is a full-time role working with students who speak English as an additional language, helping them access the curriculum and build confidence in both written and spoken English.

You'll be supporting across KS3 and KS4, working closely with classroom teachers and the SEN/EAL team. Some of the students you'll support may also have mild SEN, so experience with differentiation and patience in your approach will really help.

What the school are looking for:

Someone with experience supporting young people, ideally in education (though youth work, tutoring, or similar backgrounds are also valued).
Strong communication skills and the ability to break down language barriers.
Patience, empathy, and the flexibility to adapt support depending on student needs.
A genuine interest in helping students progress academically and socially.

What's on offer:

A welcoming school with supportive staff.
Consistent, full-time work in one school.
Daily rate of 105-120 depending on experience.
Easily commutable from Watford, Harrow, Bushey, and North London by car or public transport.

If you're interested and available to start straight away, apply now and I'll be in touch to discuss the next steps.
