Schools are particularly interested in graduates from leading universities who possess strong academic credentials, excellent communication skills, and a genuine desire to make a difference.

Many of the UK's future teachers, educational psychologists, speech and language therapists, doctors, social workers, and school leaders begin their careers as Graduate Teaching Assistants.

The role offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience within education while developing highly transferable skills in leadership, communication, mentoring, problem-solving, and relationship building.

Whether you're considering teacher training, a career in education, or simply want a highly rewarding graduate role that makes an impact every day, this opportunity provides the perfect foundation.

Your Role Will Include:

Supporting students across Key Stages 3, 4, and 5
Delivering targeted academic interventions
Providing 1:1 and small-group support
Working alongside experienced teachers and school leaders
Helping students overcome barriers to learning
Contributing to the wider life of a thriving school community

A 2:1 degree or above (all subjects considered)
Graduates from Russell Group, Top 30 UK Universities, or equivalent institutions particularly encouraged to apply
Strong academic background throughout education
Excellent interpersonal and communication skills
Passion, resilience, and a proactive mindset
Genuine enthusiasm for supporting young people

Outstanding school-based training and development
Mentoring from experienced teachers and senior leaders
Valuable experience for PGCE, SCITT, Teacher Training, Educational Psychology, and postgraduate applications
Opportunities for progression into salaried teacher training pathways
A supportive and ambitious school environment
Excellent transport links across West London

This is an opportunity to join schools that pride themselves on nurturing graduate talent and developing future educational professionals. Many Graduate Teaching Assistants secure teacher training places, leadership opportunities, and long-term careers within education following their placement year.
