Redcliffe Nursery School is looking for a new Early Years Practitioner to join our team in January 2025. The Nursery School has a team of dedicated staff who are highly experienced, well-qualified and committed to providing a kind and caring place for children and families to experience their first formative years in education.
As a previously designated National Teaching School, Redcliffe actively values and promotes the importance of strong early years pedagogy and seeks to promote this with our children, families and staff, as well as within our local, national, and international communities.
Children’s rights are central to our practice. The learning environment we provide for the children is dynamic, intellectual, forward thinking and responsive. Our practice is research led and enquiry based, with a strong focus on play and a significant emphasis on outdoor experiences within our stimulating outside space, the local urban vicinity and wild forest spaces.
There is a strong sense of belonging amongst children and their families at Redcliffe, and families feel integral to their child’s experience. We take great care in ensuring the children’s transition to the next stage of education is as smooth as possible so that they can go out into the world as curious, confident life-long lovers of discovery and learning.
“Children flourish at Redcliffe Nursery School. The ambitious curriculum gives children the strongest start to their education. Leaders and staff have a deep understanding of every child’s needs. They make learning memorable and interesting. Children’s excitement and love of learning shine through. They concentrate exceptionally well on their tasks. Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) thrive and achieve highly alongside their peers.” (Last Ofsted report – 2023)We are committed to supporting our staff team in their personal and professional development. Whether you’re just starting out working in early childhood education and care, or have decades of experience, we will provide bespoke support to enable you to thrive in the role and meet your career aspirations.
