Out of School Club Assistants

Hours of work – variable to suit the needs of the provision

Salary Band 1 (£7.78 - £7.97 per hour)

Richard Coates is a wonderful place to work. We are looking to appoint several enthusiastic and well organised Out of School Club Assistants to work under the supervision of our Out of School Manager in our provision from September 2017.

If you enjoy working with children, or are thinking of pursuing a career in education or childcare, this is an exciting and unique opportunity and we very much look forward to hearing from you. We can offer flexibility to work around existing college, school or work commitments. No formal qualifications are needed – you will be able to train as you work.

From September 2017 we will be welcoming children into our Nursery and Reception classes, as well as pupils into Years 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. In addition we will be opening our Out of School Club. We will continue to provide education for 3 – 13 year olds until a new secondary school opens in Ponteland in September 2019. At this point we will move sites and operate as a 3 – 11 primary school.

Our Out of School Club provision will be open daily during term time from 7.30 – 8.45am providing structured activities and breakfast, and from 3.15 - 6.00pm providing structured activities and a snack. During school holidays the provision would be open daily from 7.30am to 6.00pm.

It is envisaged that the provision would be closed for two weeks over Christmas and two weeks during the summer holidays.

Duties may include:

setting up play areas, materials and equipment
giving out refreshments
talking to children about their concerns or worries
dealing with injuries and emergencies
building relationships with parents, carers, and professionals
keeping records and looking after petty cash
planning and supporting activities in sports, drama, music, den building, cooking and creative games

The pupils’ behaviour is exemplary (Ofsted 2013) and the staff are a dedicated team of professionals who work closely and supportively with each other. The school is a large middle school of 480 pupils located in Ponteland on the outskirts of Newcastle upon Tyne and has excellent public transport links, yet it enjoys the countryside benefits of being located within the picturesque county of rural Northumberland.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment. An enhanced DBS disclosure is required for this post as well as undertaking any training that is required for the role.

Further information about the school can be found on our website www.pontelandcoates.northumberland.sch.uk

Application packs are available to download from this advert.

Completed application forms should be returned to school by 9.00 a.m. on Friday 26 May 2017.
