Teaching assistants

 

Our team at Kingsley St John's has one mission, regardless of our job description.  We want the very highest and best outcomes for our children.  

We are all God's children.  We all have wonderful thoughts about how our school can develop and we work collaboratively to evalauate and develop our amazing school.

We value the gifts our support staff offer and encourage them to believe in their own light, whilst they have the light so they may become children of light.

We are incredibly lucky at Kingsley St John's to have such a talented, conscientious and experienced team of dedicated teaching assistants to support our children with their learning. As well as their qualifications in teaching, learning and support they bring a wide range of skills to the school, from art and horticulture to dance and D.I.Y.
