Thank you for your interest in joining our team as a Midday Supervisor.

Someries Junior School is a welcoming community which pupils and staff enjoy being part of. We aspire for all of our children to succeed and we have high expectations for everyone. We are seeking an enthusiastic Midday Supervisor to ensure that children have a safe and enjoyable lunch break. Applicants will be required to undertake training to become a first aider.

The job is a great opportunity to begin a career working with children - a number of our previous midday supervisors are now teaching assistants.
