Ribbons & Reeves are actively seeking exceptional graduates to join our network of high-performing schools across Kensington & Chelsea and Hammersmith & Fulham as Graduate Teaching Assistants.

This is an outstanding opportunity to gain hands-on classroom experience, working closely with students aged 11–18, while developing the essential skills and confidence needed to progress into teacher training.

Why join us as a Graduate Teaching Assistant?
  • Work in some of West London’s most ambitious and high-achieving schools, all dedicated to academic excellence and student wellbeing.
  • Be part of a supportive environment that nurtures aspiring teachers through structured development, mentoring, and training opportunities.

  • Join a school community affiliated with leading teacher training providers, offering a clear and supported pathway into teacher training from September 2025.
  • Develop practical classroom experience while making a real difference in students’ academic journeys and personal growth.
What we’re looking for:
  • A 1st Class or 2:1 degree from a leading UK university.
  • Strong A-Level results (A–B grades preferred) and a genuine academic passion for your subject.
  • Previous child-centred experience — such as tutoring, mentoring, coaching, or volunteering — is highly desirable.
  • Excellent communication skills, emotional intelligence, and a proactive, can-do attitude.
  • A sincere ambition to pursue a career in teaching or education.
