Based at Birkhill Primary School, Dronley Road. This job is workstyle 1. In this workstyle most of your time is spent undertaking the direct delivery of front-line services work. Depending on your role there may be a limited requirement to access a specific council location during the course of the working week if you are not delivering your service at a council location.
Angus Council currently operates the following models in their early learning and childcare settings:
- ELC Model 1 – children’s funded entitlement is 190 set days at 6 hours per day
- ELC Model 2 – children’s funded entitlement is 152 set days at 7½ hours per day
- ELC Model 3 – children’s funded entitlement is 228 set days at 5 hours per day
You will also have weekly planning and preparation time, and agreed collegiate time, in addition to the “child contact” hours outlined above.
ELC model 1 and 2 settings are open over term-time. ELC Model 3 is different as these settings are open for more hours every day and are only closed to children for two weeks over the Christmas/New Year period, three weeks in July/August and a further three public holidays and five in-service days. Therefore, they are offering ELC over 46.6 weeks of the year. This also means staff can use their annual leave and non-working time in a different way to staff working term-time. While some of the leave will be decided in advance (that is, when the setting is closed), staff working in these settings will also be able to apply for additional time off while the setting is open.
Working 36.25 hours per week, you will work 195 days per year, Monday to Friday, term time working.
Working as an effective member of an early level team, you will deliver a flexible, high quality, stimulating education and care-centred service which meets the needs of young children and their families. You will contribute to the planning and implementation of the curricular programme, which meets the need of the individual child in line with national and local policies and guidelines and quality assurance procedures.
Membership of the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) or commitment to gain registration with the SSSC in accordance with their requirements is essential.
You must have the ability to become a member of the PVG Scheme. Please refer to job outline and person specification for further details and requirements for this job.
