Midday Assistant

Mildmay Primary School · Chelmsford · Essex

Job description

Mildmay Primary School is the result of a merger between the two long-standing and successful Mildmay schools that have provided primary education to the community for over 50 years.
We firmly believe that children will learn best if they are engaged in and enjoying the experience. Therefore, Mildmay Primary School will always seek to put our Children’s wellbeing and engagement at the heart of our decision making in order that all children have the opportunity to be the best version of themselves, explore and find their talent and make progress towards their full potential.

Mildmay Primary School is part of the Bridge Academy Trust: a collegiate and collaborative Trust, where, first and foremost, each school is a place of (high quality) learning, where young people ENJOY, ENRICH, ACHIEVE & ASPIRE. The core purpose is to provide high quality continuity of every child’s journey through education from 3 to 19, with a community and school-led school improvement approach and long-term sustainable strategy. Bridge Academy Trust is committed to its people strategy and prioritises staff’s development to ensure they too can enjoy, enrich, achieve and aspire.

About the role:

We are seeking a caring and enthusiastic individual to join our team as a Midday Assistant. This role is all about helping to create a positive and enjoyable lunchtime experience for our pupils. You will be supporting children in the dining hall, encouraging good table manners and friendly conversation, as well as supervising play outside to ensure every child feels safe, included, and happy. It’s a rewarding role for someone who enjoys working with children, can bring energy and patience to the playground, and has a warm, approachable manner. By joining our team, you’ll play an important part in making lunchtimes a highlight of the school day.

Bridge Academy Trust may close this advert early if we receive a high volume of suitable applications.
