Early Years Practitioner

An opportunity has arisen for a qualified and experienced early years practitioner to join our team on a part time basis for approximately 20 hours per week to start ASAP following Easter break (hours to be discussed)

Experience of working with children with EAL would be beneficial.

Successful applicants must be reliable, enthusiastic and energetic whilst holding a relevant level 3 qualification in childcare (this does not include health and social care qualifications).

The successful candidate will ideally hold an up to date paediatric first aid certificate, safeguarding training and food hygiene and it is essential that you are able to demonstrate a thorough understanding of the EYFS and how this is implemented within the early years.

You will be allocated a group of key children within the setting and as such should have previous experience of planning activities for children and be aware of the importance of being a key person.
