Hunger and poverty are having a detrimental effect on children’s ability to concentrate and engage in their school learning. Hunger often leads to lethargy and sometimes even disruptive behaviour, which ultimately leads to children not engaging in the classroom.
A Childcare Practitioner working in a Breakfast Café will provide a safe, secure environment before school where all children attending are provided with a healthy breakfast (ranging from cereal, toast, fruit and yoghurts).
Breakfast Cafés are a drop-in service and are not a registered childcare provision.
Operational hours are 7.45am-9am, with the children attending from 8am.
We are looking for someone who:
1. Has understanding and experience working in a catering environment role.
2. Understands dietary and nutritional needs.
3. Has organisational skills.
4. Is willing to work as part of a team.
5. Is fun, engaging, and adaptable.
In return you will benefit from:
1. An hourly rate of £13.26 per hour.
2. Access to a wide range of professional learning and training opportunities.
Before confirming your appointment, you will be required to obtain Protection of Vulnerable Groups (PVG) scheme membership through Disclosure Scotland and become a member of the relevant PVG scheme.
As this role requires SSSC registration, the successful applicant will have three months to apply for registration. If appointed, you must start your application as soon as possible so you're registered within the required six months. More details are included in the role profile.
