Our client in DA2 is looking for Early Years Apprentices to support the Nursery Practitioners in delivering high-quality care and education for children throughout the setting in partnership with the staff teams and parents. The successful candidates must be punctual and reliable, ensuring they have all the necessary equipment to carry out their duties efficiently and effectively.
As a member of the nursery team, you will assist in the implementation of the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum, promoting a stimulating environment of play, and encouraging and supporting the social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development of the children. There is an option for further training to progress and acquire a Level 2/3 Nursery Practitioner qualification if applicable.
The role would be suitable for anyone seeking to complete a Level 2/3 qualification, having some or no experience of working in Early Years. To be viable for a Level 3 qualification, the ability to write at a Level 3 standard is paramount; having gained GCSE Math's and English A-C or 9-4 would be advantageous. If you have not gained these previously, Oasis will support you to gain the Level 2 Functional Skills in Math's and English. Ultimately, wage will depend on age and current qualification, rising after the completion of probation.

* Alert the Nursery Practitioner of all personal concerns in relation to the development, care, or safety of any child.
