St George’s offers a Holiday Club provision as part of its wrap around care services, to provide care for our children from 2 to 8 years.

The successful candidate must be willing to cover all non-term time dates, with the exception of the Christmas period, which amounts to approximately 13 weeks of the year. There will also be a brief period in term-time to attend meetings and ensure familiarity with Junior School and Nursery practices, staff and relevant pupils. The working year therefore, including the non-term time dates and term-time element, equates to 15 weeks of the calendar year in total. There are also opportunities to join our Supply Register of Early Years Practitioners within term-time to become more familiar with the internal EYP team who support the holiday club.
The post holder should be aware of appropriate handling of young children in a positive and caring environment. S/he will need to ensure the children in her/his care are happily engaged in the different activities and programmes offered each day.
Interested candidates should either hold current SSSC registration or qualifications which would ensure registration as a Practitioner in a Daycare of Children Services as a minimum.

Vision and values
The main vision of St George’s School for Girls is to produce women of independent mind who are equipped with the academic and life skills to succeed. The ethos is based on four values: truth, honour, freedom and courtesy. Students and staff alike are encouraged to be respectful towards one another. Pupils learn in an environment free of gender stereotypes.
St George’s nursery curriculum is based on child-led activities, involving problem-solving, creativity and role play. For the older students, the curriculum is based on GCSE and Scottish Higher and Advanced Higher examinations in eight areas: languages, maths, social studies, sciences, health and well-being, religious and moral education, expressive arts and technologies.
