• Follow safeguarding, lone working and child protection procedures.
• Input accurate information on internal systems such as CPOMS.
• Provide a safe and inclusive learning environment, de-escalate challenging situations, and promote positive behaviour.

Our Benefits

• 11 weeks’ paid holiday per year (during school holidays)
• Vitality Health package (with no employee excess to pay on claims)
• Royal London Pension Scheme
• Job valuations to ensure competitive salaries
• 45p per mile for any work-related journeys
• Annual 2 night staff Getaway
• Christmas spending voucher
• Regular social activities
