Graduate Learning Support Assistant – Sunderland Secondary SchoolsCompetitive Daily Rates, Long-Term, ASAP Start
Teaching Personnel is recruiting graduates for Learning Support Assistant roles across secondary schools in Sunderland, with positions available immediately. These roles are particularly well suited to Psychology, Sports Science, Health, or Social Care graduates — degrees that translate directly into understanding how young people think, behave, and learn.
That said, applications are welcome from graduates of any discipline who have a genuine interest in working with young people and building a career in education.
