  • An individual who can commit up to 5 days (negotiable) per week on a long-term placement.
  • Individuals with enhanced child workforce DBS/criminal record checks - or be prepared to have a DBS application completed before work commences.

The schools offer onsite parking and easy to get to via public transport and easy commute if you live in the surrounding area.
