A lovely Coventry Catholic Primary School requires a Primary teaching assistant with experience of working within Key Stage 1 and 2 for long term position starting September. Based on a strong Catholic spirit, this school offers a welcoming environment for pupils from all backgrounds or faiths. 'This school treats each child not only as an individual but special in their own particular way' was a comment that expressed the views of the majority of parents. The pupils also greatly appreciate the school and respond by showing good behavior and courtesy to each other and adult staff. . Due to pupils making varied progress in different year groups, they make satisfactory progress overall and leave the school having reached broadly average standards. Pupils feel safe in school and have the confidence in staff to listen and deal with any concerns they have. The curriculum satisfactorily meets the needs of pupils and, as with other initiatives; the school is working towards making links between subjects in order to improve pupils learning. There is a good range of after school activities that helps to promote pupils well being and enjoyment of school.
