Due to a successful internal promotion,  we are looking for a caring, reliable, and positive Midday Supervisor to ensure that our lunchtimes are a happy, calm and enjoyable part of the school day.
You will play a vital role in supporting children’s play, wellbeing, and social development, while ensuring they feel safe, confident, and ready to return to learning in the afternoon.

 Key Responsibilities

As a valued member of our lunchtime team, you will:

  • Supervise pupils in the dining hall, playground, and indoor areas when required.
  • Encourage positive play, cooperation, and inclusion among all pupils.
  • Promote good behaviour and always model our school values.
  • Support children in managing friendships, resolving minor conflicts, and building social skills.
  • Ensure pupils’ safety, wellbeing, and comfort throughout the lunchtime period.
  • Provide simple first aid (training provided if needed).
  • Work collaboratively with colleagues to maintain a friendly, supportive lunchtime environment.
  • Help set up and clear away dining hall equipment as required.

 Who we are looking for

We would love to hear from you if you:

  • Enjoy working with children and want to make a positive impact on their day.
  • Are warm, patient, and approachable with a nurturing attitude.
  • Can build positive relationships with pupils and colleagues.
  • Are reliable, committed, and able to work effectively as part of a team.
  • Can remain calm, fair, and consistent when supporting children.
  • Are enthusiastic about promoting active, fun, and inclusive play.
  • Share our values of kindness, respect, teamwork, and ambition
  • Experience working with children is helpful but not essential—your attitude, care, and willingness to learn are what matter most.
