About this Role

The Wensum Trust is seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and dedicated Education and Pastoral Assistant to join our vibrant staffing team at Burnham Market Primary School for 2 days per week. We are looking for a dedicated and nurturing person who will work as part of our school team to help deliver our vision of the school being 'Local Memories, Broadening Horizons.'

We are a creative team working in the beautiful location of Burnham Market on the North Norfolk coast. We work to our strengths and take every opportunity to do the very best for our children and their families.

We are looking for an Education and Pastoral Assistant who demonstrates:

A dynamic and enthusiastic approach to developing and shaping children's education and bringing out the best in our pupils.
A positive attitude towards being part of a vibrant and forward-thinking staff team.
A caring and nurturing person who works with children following our emotion coaching and relational approach.

We would love to show you around so that we can share all that we do within our coastal community.

Being a part of The Wensum Trust’s family of schools offers employees unique experiences to work alongside our strategic partners and to collaborate with a wider network of staff. As a trust we have professionalised the role of education support. All of our Education and Pastoral Assistants are paid at either scale D or E with opportunities for pay progression. We believe in professional development at all levels. Therefore, we invest in our staff by providing opportunities for growth and upskilling. Our career progression pathways allow support staff to develop and advance within our schools. As a progressive trust, we aim to stay ahead of an ever-evolving educational landscape.

We value our staff and are committed to supporting their wellbeing. We have an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) which all staff can access 24 hours a day. The EAP provides counselling services, legal information and guidance, musculoskeletal services and online resources such as nutrition diaries, healthy eating plans, personal coaching questionnaires and tools and fitness programmes.

We care about bringing together the most able people, to help us achieve our vision of providing a rounded education for children, quality support for their families and opportunities to enrich our communities.
