Further details about the role
At Oakwood Primary Academy, the pupils and staff are looking to recruit an outstanding Level 3 qualified Nursery Practitioner to join and lead our nursery team, helping to make magic happen for our little learners, aged 2-4!
We are looking for someone child-centric, with clear passion for working with pre-school aged children and their families. If your heart lights up at the sight of finger-painted masterpieces, story-time adventures and giggles that fill the room, then we think you’d be perfect for this role. Our nursery is a special place, full of love, learning and laughter and we need a team player who’s ready to sprinkle their own unique charm into our supportive and well-resourced environment.
Not only are we looking for an enthusiastic and skilled practitioner to support our learners, but we are also looking for someone with previous managerial experience and qualities, who can bring warmth, organisation, knowledge, great communication and interpersonal skills to every day. We need a team-player who can integrate their own passion and vision for our setting and its environment, adding value to the smooth day-to-day running and high expectations that we have for the behaviour, progress and record-keeping for all pupils in our care.
Oakwood Primary Academy is a thriving, happy primary school in Eastbourne, where 305 wonderful pupils (aged 2 – 11) bring life and energy into our setting. Our site hosts our nursery and EYFS pupils in a separate, modern building, that prides itself on being welcoming, nurturing and a beautiful place to be. Here at Oakwood, we’re proud to be a part of the local community - a community that means a great deal to our pupils, families and all the staff, and since being rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted in October 2022, we’ve been working hard to reach even greater heights for every child in our care.
