Post will be 8.45am - 3.15pm Monday to Friday, term time only.

Some of our roles attract a high level of interest and for this reason, we review applications as they are received. Therefore, on occasions, this means roles may close earlier than advertised so early applications are highly recommended.

Applicants for this post must be willing to undergo child protection screening, including reference checks with previous employers and a DBS check with the Disclosure & Barring Service.
