KSTE are expanding breakfast and afterschool club provision to include Wixams Tree Primary Academy and require energetic and motivated playworkers to provide a fun, engaging and safe space for our children at the beginning and end of the school day called The Club.
This position is responsible for the smooth delivery of the breakfast club and afterschool provision. They will be responsible for all aspects of delivering the programme, managing the play environment, delivering high quality afterschool provision, engaging with the children, dealing with parents and liaising with the school and Trust.
The role requires a highly child centred approach, the development of creative play contexts, and a strong understanding of safeguarding.
Previous experience of working with children is desirable but not essential, however the person needs to demonstrate an understanding of offering care to our children. All applicants must undergo training and have a DBS.
Ideally, we would like our playworkers to be able to deliver both the breakfast club and afterschool club, but we can consider applicants who are not able to commit to both time slots.
Please see the role outline with this advert for more details.
