Mealtimes in our primary school are more than just a break in the day - they're a vital part of a social and emotional development. They offer a chance for our children to relax, connect with friends, and build positive relationships in a safe and supportive environment.
With the right guidance and care, lunchtime becomes a space where children learn important life skills like sharing, communication, and independence. A calm, well-supervised mealtime can set the tone for the rest of the school day, helping our pupils feel valued, nourished, and ready to learn.
We're looking for someone who:
- Has the ability to build positive relationships with children and adults
- Is friendly, caring, approachable and patient
- Can be a clam and supportive presence
- Enjoys being around children and is committed to safeguarding
- Brings a positive attitude and a genuine love of school life.
In this role you will:
- Supervise children in the dining hall and playground during lunch
- Support pupils with eating, social interactions and positive behaviour
- Encourage healthy choices and good table manners
- Help set up and clear away dining areas
- Be a caring, approachable adult in the busy heart of school life.
We offer
- A role where your work really matters - make a meaningful impact on children's wellbeing every day
- A rewarding role in a positive environment
- The opportunity to work in a team who are invested in growing the potential of others
- Competitive package with generous career average pension scheme with employer contributions of 2%
- A part-time, term time only contract working 39 weeks per year
- Ongoing professional development
The closing date for applications is Monday 12th October at 9.00am. Interviews will be arranged once applications have been reviewed.
