We’re hiring Supply Educational Assistants (EAs) who have experience working with children with special needs to help our students reach their full potential.

If you’ve been working for a year or more to support children learning English, children with health conditions, children with learning or behavioural challenges or other special needs, this rewarding and challenging job could be the perfect fit for you.

Educational Assistants play an important role in our schools by:

• helping integrate students with special needs into their inclusive classrooms and school communities
• working with teachers and other EAs to make sure all students meet their full potential
