Midday Supervisory Assistant job summary
We are a thriving infant and nursery school with an independent Pre-School on-site. We all work closely together to ensure the children in our school have a very positive experience whilst they are with us. We have a wonderful team who are passionate about education and who have high expectations for all our children, ensuring that they thrive in all aspects of their development. We work hard to provide a flexible, practical, creative and exciting curriculum that meets the interests and needs of the children in our school. We know that children who are happy, feel safe, inspired and motivated, will be successful and achieve their social, emotional and academic potential.
Aim for every child to fulfil our school values and become:
Self Believing: Understand themselves as people and be proud of their achievements. By knowing how to feel safe, and happy they develop a sense of their own identity, liking and respecting the person they are becoming, feeling liked and accepted by others. Therefore becoming more confident, motivated, resilient and compassionate.
Empathetic: Be confident communicators and excited to connect with others. Have the knowledge and strategies to understand and manage their own feelings and have the ability to empathise and support others. Know how important it is to understand their own and other’s feelings, views and values, showing care and respect for themselves, their family and friends.
Aspirational: Be happy and have resilience to overcome times of challenge in their lives and in our ever-changing world. Learn how to think and talk about their own learning and where it is taking them. Have the life skills and language to enable them to represent themselves and be understood in the world.
Respectful: Value the importance of building secure and positive relationships having experienced the strong partnership we build when working with our parents and carers. Find ways to make a positive contribution to the community they live in by taking care of themselves, others and the world around them. Children learn to treat others as they would like to be treated.
Curious: Enjoy learning and be excited to develop new knowledge and skills. Understand themselves as learners; know how they learn best and want to continue to learn and achieve, having experienced the success of achieving well from their starting point with us.
Healthy: Know that they need to take care of their minds and bodies so they are ready to grow and learn and be able to face challenges and solve problems and regulate. Learn how to form trusting and safe relationships with others and are able to make healthy and positive choices with increasing independence.
