Role Overview
Vision for Education seeks an enthusiastic, motivated, and committed Early Years Educator for a wonderful Pre‑School in Bexhill. This is a full‑time position, with a flexible bank role available for cover as required. You will be expected to plan and provide an inclusive, caring, and stimulating environment with exciting play opportunities that meet all children’s developmental needs. You will nurture and support children aged 2‑4 while fostering their academic, personal, and social growth. Working hours can vary between the Pre‑School’s opening times of 8 am – 4 pm, depending on requirements. This specific cover is typically 8 am – 4 pm, although longer shifts may be available. The nursery is open all year round but can accommodate term‑time only staff.

This role requires you to be physically fit, able to work on your own initiative, and responsive to the needs of the children. There will be occasions requiring physical effort, including manual handling, lifting, changing and dressing children, as well as providing personal care. The Pre‑School is a large building and is very fortunate to have a spacious garden for each age group, which the children make full use of as they are often outdoors. If you enjoy being outside, playing in the sand and searching for bugs, while maintaining high‑quality education for children, then this is the role for you.
