Job Details

We are looking to appoint a dinner supervisor, to start as soon as possible.

Langley Primary is a school with excellent behaviour and no exclusions of any sort for more than 10 years. The children are polite and helpful.

The role would involve taking responsibility for a class of children over an hour's lunchtime. This includes organising and supporting the children to eat their lunch and supervising them on the playground with other dinner supervisors.

Due to numbers the dinnertimes are split for Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 children. Key Stage 1 lunchtime is 12-1pm and KS2 12.30-1.30pm. You might be asked to work in either area but it would then be the same time each day and with the same class each day with a further 5 minutes each side for hand over.

You will be joining a team of established supervisors and will become part of a team. Training and induction will be provided at the beginning. You will need to be able to obtain a DBS (which we will arrange for you).

Pre-employment checks will be carried out in line with KCSIE.
