Playground Assistant & Lunchtime Supervisor Chelsea, England
Job description
We are looking to appoint a Playground Assistant & Lunchtime Supervisor at our popular co-ed school in the heart of Notting Hill who will be part of a highly committed and passionate team.
The role requires someone who has a natural ability to interact with children, has a friendly, approachable disposition and can work efficiently and calmly under pressure. Duties will include: encouraging good behaviour in the playground and at lunchtime; checking the safety of playground equipment; accompanying children to the First Aider and; helping with the safe movement of children between sites.
NHP is a ‘Thinking School’, a title which reflects its intelligent approach to education and its devotion to instilling in its children the values of resilience, creativity and responsibility, which it holds dear. The successful applicant must fully support the ethos of the school.
Previous school experience is desirable, but not essential. The candidate must, however, have the desire to work with children and a willingness to participate in school life.
This position will involve contact with, and responsibility for, children and will amount to ‘regulated activity’.
The role is term time only, for 20.5 hours per week over 5 days.
The salary is competitive. Free school lunches are provided.
If you are keen to join our team, please tick the ‘Apply’ button to submit your application form.
The closing date for completed applications is 9am on Friday 23rd June 2023. Interviews will be scheduled in the week beginning 26th June 2023. Early applications are encouraged.
The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the DBS.
The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act (1974) and the School is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions (including those which are ‘spent’ unless they are ‘protected’ under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children.
NHP is an equal opportunities employer.
