Preschool Early Years Educator Level 2 or 3 job summary

We are looking for an Early Years Educator who can:

Work with a committed Preschool team, who put the child at the heart of all they do.
Work under direction from the Preschool Leader but also take initiative.
Maintain a calm influence and approach and work flexibly and responsively to the needs of the children.
Motivate and support children by example and with good humour.
Contribute to the preschool planning schedule with exciting and challenging age-appropriate activities.
Carry out observations of up to 8 key children, and keep accurate records in line with EYFS and Ofsted requirements.
Provide parents with regular feedback on their child’s progression using an online journal system.
Build positive relationships with all members of the school community.

We are proud to be a setting that has two Quality Assurance Accreditations from Bucks Early Years in both Communication and Language support and Early Literacy, and we have developed our pedagogical style to be ‘chatty’ and ‘friendly’. We know this helps our children gain and progress their social and emotional skills, recognise their own emotions and those of others, and help them feel ‘Safe, Supported and Successful’. The right candidate will have excellent communication skills which are essential for all our children to become happy, confident, independent and inquisitive little learners.

Princes Risborough Primary School is a warm and inclusive community school nestled in the heart of the charming market town of Princes Risborough. Our vision is to be a continuously improving school where every child feels safe, supported, and empowered to succeed. We believe that all members of our school community—pupils, staff, and families alike—should be actively involved, invested, and inclusive of one another.

Our core values of Perseverance, Respect, Sharing, and Possibilities guide everything we do and shape the positive environment we nurture.

We pride ourselves on providing an inclusive, high-quality, broad, and balanced curriculum tailored to meet the needs of every pupil.

Visits to the school are warmly welcomed. To arrange a visit or to find out more about the role, please contact our school office on 01844 345251 or email office@prpglt.co.uk
