The right candidate will have experience of early years and have a working knowledge of early years requirements. They will have experience of caring for children as young as 2 years of age.
As the pre-school is fortunate enough to belong to Peterborough Diocese Trust and is very much part of the school, you will be joining a supportive network, be supported and eventually work closely with the early years lead who will support you in your role. It is our vision that the pupils and staff will benefit from the pre-school and reception class settings working closely together as a cohesive early years unit.
