Role description
Kingston Primary School (PS) is seeking to establish a pool of Special Needs Education Assistants for permanent and fixed term, full-time and part-time vacancies which may arise during the 2026 school year and up to the end of Term 3, 2027. Appointments may be offered at any time for vacancies that commence during this period.
At Kingston PS, our mission is simple yet powerful: to prepare every student for life success by equipping them with the knowledge, skills, and character to thrive, contribute positively to society, and pursue excellence in all they do.
We are committed to excellence in teaching and learning and maintain high expectations for both our students and ourselves. Our whole-school approaches to literacy, numeracy, and character development, underpinned by the Virtues and Resilience Project, ensure every child is supported to achieve their personal best. Our core values of Care, Courage, Respect, and Excellence guide our decisions, actions, and relationships every day.
At Kingston PS, we believe that supporting students is everyone's responsibility. Our staff work collaboratively to provide a strong wraparound approach that promotes wellbeing, engagement, belonging, and academic success for every child.
Complementing this whole-school approach is our dedicated Student Support Services Team, which provides specialised support for students requiring additional interventions. Working alongside teachers, education assistants, families, and external agencies, the team helps ensure students receive the support they need to thrive.
