Midday Supervisor Assistant

St Matthew's Primary School · Luton · Luton

Job description

St Matthew’s are looking for a Midday Supervisor (MDSA) to join our lunchtime team.


Our lunches are staggered between 11:45am and 1:45pm and you would work 1 hours during this period, Monday to Friday, which equates to 5 hours per week, term time only.

While St Matthew’s is a large primary school, and that appeals to some and not to others, it has a calm, personal and happy atmosphere. We are a big school with small community habits and pride ourselves on everyone’s well-being being a cornerstone of our ethos. The sense of being in an ambitious, supportive family is often commented on by children, parents and staff alike.


What do you ask from you?

  • You're friendly and engaging with our children

  • You can communicate in good English with our children and wider school team

  • You are reliable and have good timekeeping

What we will give you in return:

  • Onsite parking

  • An SLT team who are active in the school and not afraid to get stuck in

  • Lots of extra-curricular activities and trips for the children

  • Progression pathways

  • Access to an Employee Assistance Programme

  • As well as your usual: CPD etc.


So if you are looking to start your career in school, this is a wonderful opportunity to start work in a school, many of our previous MDSA’s have gone on to become Teaching Assistants in school.


Or maybe you are winding down to retire and still want to work a few hours a week.


Whatever your situation, we’d love to hear from you, so apply now and take the next step to becoming part of our St Matthew’s team.


This role is for 1 hours per week between the hours of 11:45am-1:45pm, term time only on a fixed term contract to 31st August 2027 initially.


The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff to share this commitment. Applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS). CVs will not be accepted for any posts based in schools.
