We are seeking an experienced and caring individual who is passionate about working with children and committed to providing high-quality before and after School or Nursery care for our pupils, as well as running our fun-centred holiday club for 2 to 5-year-olds. The post holder leads a team of early years practitioners and playworkers who create a warm, engaging space where children can learn, thrive and play.

Our wrap-around provision consists of:

  • After School Club for both Nursery and Junior School pupils
  • An After School Activities Programme (mostly for P3-6)
  • Early Birds Club (from 8am – 8.30am)
  • Nursery Holiday Club (2 to 5-year-olds) outside of term time

This is a full-time, full-year post and would be ideal for an organised and proactive early years practitioner, or someone with similar experience. The successful candidate must be registered either with SSSC or GTCS. There will be an element of ‘hands on’ childcare when the children are in the service.

The post is available from February 2026 and is offered on a full-time basis. Typical hours of attendance will be 10am – 6pm, however there will be some flexibility with this in Holiday Club periods.

We plan to interview for this post in the week commencing 15th December 2025.
