What skills and experience we're looking for

We are looking for someone who is dynamic, confident and resilient. The ideal candidate will have experience of working in the Early Years and will have led on interventions and provision that supports the development of children, for example interventions such as Intensive Interactions and Bucket Time. This person will have high aspirations and expectations for all children, they will be an excellent communicator and have a passion for enabling children to achieve their full potential.

Many of our children enter the Foundation Stage working at points below expected baseline entry levels. The successful candidate will be able to show understanding and practice of what exceptional Early Years practice looks like, using targeted and skilful support to enable rapid progress in children’s learning and development.

In return, the School and Trust can offer enthusiastic and motivated pupils who want to learn and achieve, engaged and interested families who want the best for their children, alongside hardworking, dedicated and supportive staff and governors. The school is committed to developing the potential of colleagues at every level and will ensure that varied professional development and career opportunities will be available.

Commitment to safeguarding

The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare and safety of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. The successful candidate will require an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check (previously CRB) in line with the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 and the Police Act Regulations.
