Job Description
A vibrant primary school in Birmingham South is seeking a Pupil Premium Progress Partner to support children who benefit from extra encouragement in reading, writing, confidence and learning routines. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys spotting small wins, building quick rapport and helping pupils realise their potential through consistent, targeted support. You’ll work directly with Pupil Premium learners across KS1 and KS2, delivering structured interventions, guiding them through next steps and supporting them in class to strengthen focus, resilience and independence. Teachers rely on progress partners as an integral part of the learning team — someone who notices barriers early, adapts tasks, and brings positivity into each session. If you’re the type of person who thrives when you see children “click” with something new, you’ll thrive here. The school is friendly, forward-thinking and gives support staff real ownership over the impact they help create.
Job Responsibilities:
Deliver targeted small-group and 1:1 interventions linked to reading, writing and confidence-building.
Support pupils in class with clarity, calmness and adaptive approaches.
Track progress indicators and share insights with teachers to refine learning plans.
Help pupils develop learning routines, resilience and independence throughout the school day.
Desired Experience
+ Qualifications
Experience supporting primary-aged pupils, particularly with intervention delivery.
Confident communicator with empathy, energy and strong relationship-building skills.
Understanding of Pupil Premium needs and how socioeconomic factors can affect learning.
Flexible, reliable and able to work collaboratively across year groups.

How much does it cost and how much will I be paid?
