- Create a warm, nurturing, and inclusive environment where children and their learning are the priority
- Work flexibly as part of a committed team
- Be actively supportive of the values and ethos of the school
- Possess excellent interpersonal skills in order to communicate effectively with children, staff and parents alike
- Be willing to undertake positive touch training and other training relevant to the role.
In return we can offer you:
- A warm, welcoming working environment
- Support in your role from experienced colleagues
- A unique opportunity to contribute to a new specialist centre
- Opportunities to develop your practice through a tailored programme of Continued Professional Development.
