Part-Time Primary Teaching Assistant – Tuesdays | Brighton

Location: Hanover area, Brighton
Days: Every Tuesday (Term-time only)
Role: Primary Teaching Assistant | Regular weekly cover
 

Looking for a Teaching Assistant job in Brighton that gives you consistency without committing to a full working week?

Sussex Teachers are recruiting a Primary Teaching Assistant for regular Tuesday cover at an inclusive mainstream school in the Hanover area of Brighton. You’ll return to the same school each week, get to know the staff and pupils, and become a familiar face in the classroom.

That’s what makes this opportunity special. Instead of settling into a new school every Tuesday, you can build relationships, grow in confidence and see the difference your support makes over time. The rest of your week remains free for other work, study or family commitments.

What you’ll do

You’ll work alongside the Year 6 class teacher to support learning, encourage pupils to take part in activities and help create a positive classroom environment. You may support individual children, small groups or the wider class according to the needs of the day.

Why apply?

• A regular Tuesday booking you can plan around.
• The same Brighton primary school each week, so you can feel part of the team.
• Time to build trust with pupils and recognise their progress.
• Valuable classroom experience in an inclusive school.
• The flexibility to keep your other weekdays open.
• Support from Sussex Teachers, an independent Brighton agency specialising in local primary schools.

Getting there

The school is in the Hanover area of Brighton, with bus connections along nearby Lewes Road. The Elm Grove bus stop is served by routes including the 25 and 49. If you travel by train, London Road (Brighton) station is also within walking distance. We’ll share the exact location and help you plan your journey when we discuss the role.

We’d love to hear from applicants with recent experience supporting children in a school, childcare or similar setting. You’ll need to be reliable, enjoy working with primary-aged children and be available every Tuesday.

Make Tuesday your regular school day. Apply to Sussex Teachers today.
