CHRISTWAY COLLEGE – KINGSTON

Learning Assistant

The College is currently seeking applicants for Learning Assistant positions for 2025. Full-time and/or part-time positions are available, working on student days only. The days worked will be negotiated with the successful applicant/s. Ongoing contracts are available depending on the applicant's circumstances/experience.

ROLE

Learning Assistants play an important role in the support of students with additional needs. They enhance the student learning experience and help students reach their full potential. Learning Assistants work under the direction of a teacher and predominantly work with students who have additional needs, including students with neurological and learning disorders, physical disabilities, and behavioural disorders. They support students by implementing a range of teaching and learning strategies such as one-on-one or small group instruction, co-operative learning, scaffolding, modelling, and worked examples. Learning Assistants may also be assigned to a specific student that requires one-to-one support. They collaborate with the class teacher to reinforce classroom teaching and assist students with organisation, social competence, accessing activities, and appropriate behaviour. Additionally, Learning Assistants may undertake supervision of the class to enable the teacher to spend time supporting students who have additional needs.
