Job Description:
Level 3 Childcare Apprenticeship – Bishops Waltham Montessori (Term Time Only)
The Aspire Training Team is seeking a motivated, reliable, and enthusiastic individual as an apprentice to complete their Level 3 Childcare qualification with Bishops Waltham Montessori.
Welcome to Bishop’s Waltham Montessori School. Our approach is child-centred, offering the child's first steps in education to be enjoyable, safe, and rewarding. This enables the child to gain confidence and self-esteem within a prepared environment using the Montessori ethos.
To the right of the building is an enclosed park which the children have the opportunity to visit daily, featuring swings and slides and a large grassed area for running and playing.
An area where many varied life skills are introduced, such as pouring drinks, laying a table, learning to do up zips and bows, caring for plants, and developing good manners. All of these skills can be used in everyday situations and increase a child’s independence, self-esteem, and confidence, helping them to become a self-reliant member of the community.
Within the school, children have the opportunity to expand their language acquisition through songs, discussions, rhymes, stories, books, and everyday communication skills, as well as learning the sounds and shapes of the individual letters.
Children are able to develop and refine their physical skills through practical life activities that support hand-eye coordination, concentration, and a pincer grip. They have free flow access to the outdoors, allowing them to develop greater control of their gross motor movements. Children play, learn, and grow in our ever-changing outdoor facilities, which include large construction, bikes, sand and water, planting and growing, large mark making, group games, and climbing activities.
We are looking for a young dynamic individual to bring fresh ideas along with some experience who will learn and develop into the role of working in a Montessori setting.
Your duties and responsibilities will include:
* Assist with planning the day’s activities.
* All aspects of personal care undertaken.
* Knowledge of the EYFS.
* Attend and contribute to parents’ evenings.
* Float rota every half hour changes to cover different tasks/different rooms and different activities – the day is varied.
* Making sure that the classrooms are covered and running smoothly in 2 separate classrooms.
* Preparing the tables for lunch.
* Sit and have lunch with the children.
* Afternoons have dance and sport sessions where external teachers come in – this is an opportunity to replenish the setting and tidy up/basic housekeeping duties.
* French once a week.
Requirements:
* Some experience in a similar role.
* You must be able to gain a clear DBS.
* Semi-rural location, so being able to drive would be beneficial.
* Having GCSEs A*-C in English Language and Maths, or equivalent i.e., functional skills would be desirable.
Hours:
* Bishops Waltham Montessori is open from 09:00-15:00 every day, but Wednesday is open until 16:00.
* The successful candidate will be required to work a minimum of 30 hours per week with flexible shift patterns.
