St Nicholas' Chantry CofE Primary School is seeking a caring and enthusiastic Midday Supervisory Assistant (MDSA) to join our dedicated team. This role is about much more than supervising lunchtime; it is about helping to create a safe, happy and inclusive environment where children can enjoy their break, build friendships and feel supported.

About St Nicholas' Chantry CofE Primary School

St Nicholas' Chantry CofE Primary School is part of Futura Learning Partnership, giving colleagues the opportunity to work within their own distinctive school community while benefiting from the collaboration, shared expertise and professional connections of a wider trust. 

About Futura Learning Partnership

Our schools span education from nursery and primary through to secondary and post-16, supported by more than 1,700 colleagues. 

Each of our schools has its own distinctive identity and deep roots in its local community, but no school works alone. Collaboration sits at the heart of Futura: schools share expertise, learn from one another and take collective responsibility for giving children and young people the best possible opportunities. 

Together, we are building the brightest future for all, enabling every individual to flourish. Our commitments to inclusion, community and growth guide how we work, the decisions we make, and the experience we want to create for pupils and colleagues.
