An exciting opportunity has arisen for a full time, term time, EYP position in St David's RC Primary School Nursery. At St David’s RC PS, we place our children at the centre of all we do - believing that in the right environment where everyone’s needs are recognised and met, everyone can learn and grow. We nurture and promote partnerships between staff, pupils, parents and the community to encourage all learners to be the best they can be. We are inclusive, embrace diversity and respect everyone as equal. The successful candidate will work as part of a supportive staff team who are committed to providing a safe, secure and inclusive environment for all.
St. David’s RC Primary School is a diverse and multicultural primary school in the North of Edinburgh. In our school, we have a wonderful spread of cultures which we embrace and promote. There is a very strong inclusive ethos at St. David’s RC and we are well supported by a range of partnership services and agencies, which enhance the work, and wider life of the school.
This post is regulated work with children and/or protected adults under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007. The preferred candidate will be required to join the PVG Scheme or undergo a PVG Scheme update check. Where an individual has spent a continuous period of 3 months or more out with the UK in the last 5 years, an Overseas Criminal Record Check will be required.

As part of our goal to improve our organisational culture and create a great place to work together for the people of Edinburgh, we want to make sure that we’re bringing the best people into our roles, not just in their skills and experience but also in their approach to work.
To help achieve this, we’re changing the way we interview and assess candidates by moving from a competency-based interview approach to a behavioural and technical (skills for the job) based approach. This new way of interviewing will allow us to assess how you think and how you would bring Our Behaviours of Respect, Integrity and Flexibility into your ways of working.
We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.
