Queensferry Primary Early Learning & Childcare
An exciting opportunity has arisen at Queensferry Primary Early Learning & Childcare. We are looking for a committed and enthusiastic Early Years Practitioner to join our team.
Our service delivers Early Learning and Childcare to children from 0-5 years old, both in term time and over the school holidays. Our current nursery improvement plan includes embedding and enhancing robust quality assurance processes, ensuring all children are making good progress, and that robust evidence is gathered and monitored to reflect this and to engage families with their child's learning and progress.
The hours will be worked 5 days per week between the hours of 7:45am and 6pm.
This post is regulated work with children and/or protected adults under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007. The preferred candidate will be required to join the PVG Scheme or undergo a PVG Scheme update check. Where an individual has spent a continuous period of 3 months or more out with the UK in the last 5 years, an Overseas Criminal Record Check will be required. An unconditional offer of employment and commencement in the post will be subject to the outcome of both these pre-employment checks being deemed satisfactory.
As part of our goal to improve our organisational culture and create a great place to work together for the people of Edinburgh, we want to make sure that we’re bringing the best people into our roles, not just in their skills and experience but also in their approach to work.
To help achieve this, we’re changing the way we interview and assess candidates by moving from a competency-based interview approach to a behavioural and technical (skills for the job) based approach. This new way of interviewing will allow us to assess how you think and how you would bring Our Behaviours of Respect, Integrity and Flexibility into your ways of working.
We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.
