PERSONAL CARE ASSISTANT (EYFS/KS1)

Part-Time (Mon-Fri 10:00 – 14:00), Term Time Only

Cedars School is part of Cedars Academy Trust. We educate children with complex needs from EYFS to Year 9 at our school in Low Fell, Gateshead.

We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic, caring and reliable Personal Care Assistant to work in our Primary Department to begin as soon as possible.

Our Personal Care Assistants play a vital role in supporting the personal care and well-being of our youngest learners in EYFS and KS1. Working closely within a class team, they ensure that each pupil’s individual care needs are met while promoting their independence and dignity. Our teams deliver inclusive and innovative approaches to care, integrating practical and sensory experiences in the classroom, outdoor environment, and therapeutic spaces.

While previous experience in a personal care or similar role would be an advantage, we provide training and support to all new team members.

The ability to work collaboratively, demonstrate a caring and patient approach, and show commitment to meeting the needs of our pupils is essential.

To apply, please complete the application form and return it to recruitment@cedarstrust.org.uk

If would like to have an informal discussion about the role, or arrange a tour of our School, please email Gareth Kyle, Business Manager at gareth.kyle@cedarstrust.org.uk

Please note that should we receive a high volume of suitable candidates we will close this vacancy early so we would suggest applying as early as possible.

Deadline for applications: Friday 13th December 2024

Interviews: w/c Monday 16th December 2024
