Howe Green House is committed to the protection and safety of its pupils and follows safer recruitment practice. If called for interview you will need to bring your driving licence, passport or other photographic ID and original examination documents or certificates for verification. The interview will also assess your suitability to work within a school environment and will include questions relating to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.

An exciting new opportunity has arisen to join an exceptional team of happy staff in this warm and vibrant independent school. We are seeking staff to work either a morning, or an afternoon shift, assisting in either the Acorns Kindergarten (ages 2-4), or in the main school (ages 4-11).

The role will include caring for children in wraparound care in the Howe Green House Before and After School clubs, supporting children in the classroom environment, and supervisory duties at lunchtimes.

Afternoon Assistant - 12:00pm - 5:45pm

A minimum qualification in childcare to Level 2 is required for working with pre-school age children or Level 3 for managing After School Care. Candidates without formal qualifications for the roles in the main school will be considered - but a willingness to train and acquire qualifications is essential.
