Nursery Assistant (EYFS)/Pre-Prep Teaching Assistant

Come and join us! Our wonderful Pre-Prep and new Nursery are looking for one full-time class assistant, and one or two ‘bank staff’ who would like to work occasionally as part of the team. 

The full-time role is a super opportunity to broaden your skills and gain valuable and enjoyable experience, learning from wonderfully lively and fun professionals, using your initiative and knowledge of children in a very happy, well-appointed school. The ‘bank staff’ role is a great way to start returning to work after a break. Candidates must have Maths and English GCSE at ‘C’ or above, and have a Level 3 Childcare (Early Years Educator) diploma (or equivalent). 

Bring us your energy and enthusiasm, complemented by your calm and caring nature, and we will give you a role where you will be nurturing, caring for, and empathising with young children to your heart's content!  

We offer a fabulous package of benefits which includes full catering for staff during working hours, a very generous pension scheme and 36 days holiday (including bank holidays). We educate and entertain children from rising 3 to 13 years, for 50 weeks a year, 7am – 7pm (hours covered by shift), making the absolute most of all the wonderful facilities, woods, gardens and fields available to us. Life is fun at Cumnor!

Please note that applications will be considered as they arrive. Cumnor House Sussex is an equal opportunities employer, committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. The successful applicant will be required to undertake an enhanced criminal record check via the Disclosure and Barring Service.
