Midday Supervisory Assistant

As part of The Wensum Trust, we believe that our shared duty is to help every child to develop into high achieving, confident, healthy, caring and resilient members of their family and community. We want our schools to be healthy environments where both children and staff can develop and where strong, positive relationships are key. Our school, therefore, practices a relational approach with children, our families and our communities. We are particularly interested in working with people who share Our Qualities; who will work effectively and flexibly as part of a team.

The Wensum Trust is seeking to appoint two enthusiastic and dedicated Midday Supervisors to join our vibrant staffing team at Arden Grove Infant and Nursery School. We are looking for dedicated and nurturing people to assist with our SEN provision and who will work as part of our school team to help deliver our vision of the school being a 'learning for all school'. We are a creative, positive team working in Hellesdon. We work to our strengths and take every opportunity to do the very best for our children and their families.

We are looking for Midday Supervisors who demonstrate:

• A dynamic and enthusiastic approach to developing and shaping children's education and bringing out the best in our pupils

• A positive attitude towards being part of a vibrant and forward-thinking staff team.

• A caring and nurturing person who works with children following our emotion coaching and relational approach.

The roles are for 1 hour per day (12:00-13:00), Monday - Friday, 5 hours per week, term time only. Fixed term until 31st August 2027 due to SEN funding.

Being a part of The Wensum Trust’s family of schools offers employees unique experiences to work alongside our strategic partners and to collaborate with a wider network of staff. We believe in investing in employees as individuals, by providing training opportunities that help to develop both existing and new skill sets, to encourage career progression at all levels.

We value our staff and are committed to supporting their wellbeing. We have an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) which all staff can access 24 hours a day. The EAP provides counselling services, legal information and guidance, musculoskeletal services and online resources such as nutrition diaries, healthy eating plans, personal coaching questionnaires and tools and fitness programmes.

We care about bringing together the most able people, to help us achieve our vision of providing a rounded education for children, quality support for their families and opportunities to enrich our communities.

Please be aware that the school is now closed for the summer holidays so for further information on this vacancy and our school, please contact Joshua Cook on [email removed]. These emails will be checked periodically throughout the summer holidays.
