EARLY YEARS PRACTITIONERS

Glasgow

Could you inspire our youngest people to become the amazing citizens of the future?


Early Years Scotland is Scotland’s leading specialist national organisation that invests in our youngest children from birth to 5 years.


To equip our youngest children to achieve and thrive in a challenging world, we need exceptional and inspirational people. These are rarely available opportunities for qualified Early Years Practitioners to work in diverse and varied settings within communities, primary schools and our own nursery settings. No two days are the same and you will meet and engage with a range of people using all your skills and knowledge in the most positive and rewarding ways.

You will be fully involved in planning, delivering and evaluating shared play and learning experiences with families and their children; supporting children’s learning and development; developing innovative play provision and fostering positive relationships between parents and children to help reduce the poverty related attainment gap.


Early Years Scotland values and supports the professional learning of its employees, and we provide a range of professional learning and practical experience opportunities that will enhance your career profile, develop your skills and knowledge in creative and unique ways, and inspire your practice at new and exciting levels.


Join us and enable generations of Scotland’s children to be the best they can be – what more is there?
