An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic librarian to manager our busy Learning Resource Centre (LRC) which is the hub of school life at Warlingham. This role represents a great opportunity to work within a stimulating environment to support students and staff with their information needs.
This is a busy workspace where no two days are the same! Students in the 6th Form use the space to study independently, and younger students undertake paired reading, learn in groups or catch up on homework. Careers advice and resources are also available and programs promoting positive career choices are held, run by external specialists.
Your role will be to manage the resources in the centre, creating a varied and exciting selection of learning materials to compliment the curriculum as well as encouraging the students to broaden their literacy repertoire. You will need to be creative, have excellent communication skills and be able to foster engagement from all school stakeholders. Experience in a similar environment would also be useful and you must be able to work on your own initiative to actively develop the centre.
This is a rewarding role, where you can really make a difference! You will be joining a forward-thinking Trust and enjoy our many staff benefits which include:-
· Family friendly policies & wellbeing initiatives
· Local Government Pension Scheme
· Employee Assistance Programme
· Lifestyle and Retail Discounts
· Training, development and learning opportunities
· Staff sports and social events
