Operations Support Assistants
To support our children during their lunchtimes
We are looking to appoint two Operations Support Assistants to support our children during their lunchtimes. The role of the Operations Support Assistant is central to enabling excellence for all our children at Green Park Village Primary Academy. It is a role which has an influence on all children in the school, supporting all aspects of their experience within their midday break: eating play, transitions and routines.
Operations Support Assistants follow leaders’ guidance and direction for their role in the eating supervision and play provision for children, including those with Special Educational Needs. There is expectation that Operations Support Assistants are able to respond to the needs of the children and adapt their support appropriately in a responsive way, ensuring all children are safe and feel safe and engaged in play activities.
Whether you are new to the role or have experience to bring, you will receive coaching and mentoring from experienced teachers and leaders in the academy and trust to ensure that you are supported in all aspects of what you do. Therefore, we welcome applications from experienced Operations Support Assistants, as well as those looking for their first position in working as part of a school team. Our Operations Support Assistants are required to support all children in the school, including those with more complex needs — the needs of the children on a particular day always come first.
You are invited to submit a REAch2 application form to Gemma Jackson, Headteacher, via recruitment@reach2.org.
The supporting statement should clearly refer to the job description and person specification and detail how your experience and skills are suitable for our school.
Please note that we do not accept CVs.
