Teaching Assistant

Thank you for your interest in working at Rosebery School, a highly successful, oversubscribed and vibrant girls’ 11-18 school with 1460 students, including 230 in the Sixth Form. ​

Our record of success​

In 2023 80% of our students achieved a Grade 5 or above. We were also delighted that 42% of our grades were at grade 7-9, with a further 22% graded at 8 or 9. At A Level, 38% of our entries were graded at A* or A. In May 2017, Ofsted graded the school as ‘Outstanding’ in all areas and in January 2023 we were once again confirmed to be outstanding with the inspectors noting the ‘exemplary education’ that the school provides, and how leaders at all levels are ‘relentless in their pursuit of excellence and joy for every child in the school’. You can find the full report here.​

The Rosebery Way​

We aspire for every child who joins Rosebery to be able to look forward to a joyful education that challenges and inspires them, irrespective of their background or starting point. Our students experience a rich, diverse and ambitious curriculum which enables them to become the very best version of themselves. We aim to empower our students to demonstrate the resilience, ambition and motivation to push themselves to be the best, in a healthy, happy and inclusive environment, in which they can develop and thrive without fear of failure or judgement.​

Throughout this journey, The Rosebery Way defines and secures positive relationships for all and ensures that students, staff and parents/carers have the highest expectations of each other expressed with clarity, kindness and respect. Our ambition for all ensures that each Rosebery student acquires and develops the knowledge, skills and character to make their preferred next step when leaving us on their journey to become the leaders, role models and champions of industry who will go on to shape a better future for us all. We are fortunate that our girls want to learn, and we enjoy the support of our parents, who rightly have high expectations of our work with their daughters. Our students follow a traditional yet broad curriculum which ensures that they continue with all EBacc subjects until the end of Year 9. Approximately half of our students choose to stay with us into the Sixth Form.​

At Rosebery we strive to inspire and support every member of our community to achieve excellence through a love of learning and a desire to succeed. We challenge ourselves to continually improve and understand that endeavour and effort are central to meeting the highest of expectations. We are committed to creating a happy, purposeful and secure environment which provides the opportunity for all to develop and grow; to build confidence and self-belief; and to be enriched and stimulated so that we can all contribute significantly and positively to the Rosebery community and beyond.
