We are an inclusive school therefore experience of working in Early Years with children who have additional needs is essential. They will have a can-do attitude and willingness to help in other areas of the classroom, and the ability to work well under pressure.

Calculation of term time only plus two weeks' pay
Term time only plus two additional weeks' pay is calculated on the basis of the following:
• Number of 'teaching' weeks - 38 weeks; plus
• Public (bank) holidays - 1.6 weeks (8 days); plus
• Two additional weeks, inclusive of CPD - 2 weeks; plus
• Individual leave entitlement - 5.4 weeks (27 days) or 6.4 weeks (32 days)
Individual leave entitlement is calculated on the length of continuous service. Employees with less than 5 years' service will receive 27 days annual leave. Employees with more than 5 years' service will receive 32 days annual leave. For example:
Calculation for employees with less than 5 years' service:
40 weeks (term time plus 2) + 27 days (annual leave) + 8 days (public holidays) = 47 weeks' pay, to be paid in 12 equal monthly instalments
Calculation for employees with more than 5 years' service:
40 weeks (term time plus 2) + 32 days (annual leave) + 8 days (public holidays) = 48 weeks' pay, to be paid in 12 equal monthly instalments
The ability to converse at ease with customers and provide advice in accurate spoken English is essential for the post.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and, if successful, you will need to apply for an enhanced DBS disclosure.
