It's all about teamwork in an optician's practice. There are many roles, but you support each other to ensure your customers get the best experience possible. Optical assistants are a very important part of any optical practice and crucial to the customer journey.

Carrying out pre-screening tests such as retinal imaging and pressure and visual field-testing

Taking payments from customers
Being able to problem-solve with basic optical concerns
Understanding business KPIs and how they affect the practice's profitability
Training Outcome:The successful candidate will work towards achieving a Level 3 qualification in optics and gain experience in a busy optical practice.
Upon completion of the Level 3 qualification, you will be an experienced and qualified optical assistant, and as such, you can continue building up skills that will always be in demand. Career breaks and part-time working are often possible.
You could go on to acquire higher level optical qualifications such as:
Ophthalmic Dispensing – become a qualified Dispensing Optician

We are seeking passionate, committed, and enthusiastic staff to join our team. At TTA, we provide a high-quality education within a safe, caring, and focused environment. Our aim is to equip students with the skills and knowledge they need to become responsible, well-rounded citizens, capable of making informed and effective choices about their futures.
We pride ourselves on being an inclusive school with a rich and nurturing culture. We celebrate diversity and individuality while standing together as a united learning community, underpinned by shared values and high expectations.
The academy recently received a remarkably strong Ofsted report. Inspectors awarded the school with the “exceptional” grade across five categories and the “strong standard” across the remaining two categories. This formidable outcome is testament to the excellent learning culture that staff and students have built, and confirms that the academy exceeds the standards expected of it, by some measure.
The report found that students “quite simply ‘love learning’ and are determined to do their very best” and that they “have a mature approach to their studies”. Highlighting the school’s positive and nurturing culture, the inspectors noted that students “thrive in this inclusive atmosphere” whilst “the consistent belief in all pupils, from staff at all levels, transforms their self-belief” with pupils demonstrating “quiet confidence which prepares them exceptionally well for wider life”.
Academic outcomes at TTA place the school in the top 0.5% in the country. GCSE results have risen year on year since 2016, with the latest Progress 8 score of +1.32. Students from disadvantaged backgrounds make almost a grade more progress than non-disadvantaged students nationally.
At the Totteridge Academy we are committed to developing our people and our fantastic staff subscribe to the principle of ‘kaizen’ (continuous improvement), wherein each and every member of our team strives to be better every day.
Here is the opportunity for you to join one of the most happy and successful schools in United Learning and to be part of the incredible journey that The Totteridge Academy has been on.
