Nursery Nurse

Due to promotion of the previous postholder, the Governors of Archbishop Runcie Church of England VA First School wish to appoint a permanent Nursery Nurse, from Monday 2nd November (or sooner if possible).

We are a welcoming church school with happy, highly motivated children. Parents are highly engaged with the school’s work. This is a wonderful opportunity to be part of a genuinely loving and caring school. We are looking for staff who care deeply and are passionate for children and their learning, who can build very strong relationships with pupils and their families and who are willing to go the extra mile to make a difference to our local community.

As a small school, we work very closely together so being a ‘team player’ is essential and an open and honest approach is vital. This post will be to work within the first school age range.

This is an exciting opportunity to work as part of our EYFS team to support children within the provision as well and deliver small group sessions. It will be an opportunity to play a full part in the continued development of our vision for all our children to become confident, secure, caring individuals who flourish through our ambitious and creative curriculum.

It would be advantageous to have experience of teaching Read, Write Inc Phonics as well as have had paediatric first aider training and food hygiene training (or be willing to undertake this training).

This post is suitable for someone with at least a *Level 3 full and relevant EYFS qualification in order to count towards legal staff-to-child ratios. The successful candidate will set high standards for themselves, the school and our children. They will have a positive outlook and will be excited at the prospect of working as part of a small team where everyone “mucks in”.

Application packs can be downloaded from the school website (https://archbishop-runcie.eschools.co.uk/website). Completed applications should be accompanied by a covering letter and sent electronically FAO Mrs Massey, Head Teacher, via email (admin@archbishop.newcastle.sch.uk). CVs will not be accepted.

Archbishop Runcie CE (VA) First School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children; we expect all staff and volunteers to share this firm commitment. As such, an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check will be undertaken alongside other relevant employment checks deemed appropriate. We may also undertake online internet searches for shortlisted candidates.

The deadline for applications is Friday 9th October, however, applications will be considered as they are received. Due to the close proximity of the start date, this vacancy may close earlier if a suitable candidate is appointed – the school website will be updated if/when an appointment is made. No CVs please.

We welcome applications from all sections of the community, regardless of gender, race, religion, disability, sexual orientation or age. We look forward to receiving your applications.
