Flexible Shifts – Learning Support Assistants
Looking for flexible work that fits around your day-to-day life? Already have experience in the Education field? This could be the perfect opportunity for you!
Milk Education is expanding our team of Learning Support Assistants to support a variety of Primary Schools across Durham and the surrounding areas. Whether you’re an experienced TA, a recently qualified Level 2 or Level 3 Teaching Assistant, or have valuable experience working with children through childcare, care, coaching or youth work, we’d love to hear from you.
The Role: September Start, 8:30am – 15:30pm, Flexible/Day-to-Day Shifts
As a Learning Support Assistant, you’ll have the opportunity to:
- Support pupils on a 1:1 basis or in small groups, helping them build confidence and make progress.
- Work alongside teachers to deliver engaging and supportive classroom activities.
- Provide tailored support to children with a range of additional needs, including SEND.
- Help create a safe, inclusive and positive learning environment where every pupil can thrive.
- Experience different schools, year groups and settings while enjoying the freedom to choose when you work.
What We’re Looking For

- A positive, adaptable and enthusiastic approach to working in different school environments.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively as part of a team.
- An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or a willingness to obtain one.
- The right to work in the UK.
Why Choose Supply?
Flexibility. Variety. Experience. Opportunity.

You’ll gain valuable experience across different year groups and learning environments while having the opportunity to discover what type of school and role suits you best.
And who knows? Your next supply placement could be the start of something longer-term, with many opportunities potentially leading to permanent positions.
