Nursery Assistant at Castle Court School

About the role We are looking for an inspirational, energetic and creative individual to join our Nursery team as a Nursery Assistant on a permanent, term-time only basis from February 2025. We are looking ideally for our new colleague to work five full days but there can be some flexibility for the right candidate, and this can be discussed at interview. Members of the Early Years staff are vital members of our Castle Court staff team, instilling and building on a love of learning in children as young as just two years old. Your role as a Nursery Assistant will be wide-ranging, from being a Key Worker and point of contact for children and families, to leading group activities, to helping with displays and wider planning, to writing and recording formal observations on the children. Life never stands still at Castle Court and there are many opportunities to be involved in the life of the wider school community, for example through events or after-school activities. Further Information We are looking to appoint a Nursery Assistant who is not only qualified to NVQ Level 3 or above, but who is energetic, enthusiastic, and enjoys being around children in the 2 to 4 years old age bracket. Please see the attached document for more about what we are looking for. About Us Castle Court is a day Prep School located in the heart of Dorset. We seek to appoint staff who will be keen to be involved in the full breadth of school life and supportive of the school’s Christian foundation. Castle Court was founded in Parkstone, Poole, in 1948 as a day school for boys; in 1968 it moved to its present site in beautiful grounds on the north edge of Corfe Mullen. In the 1970s the school became co-educational and has steadily grown in size: today it has around 280 pupils, aged from 2 to 13. The setting is idyllic: 55 acres of magnificent playing-fields, playgrounds, gardens and woods; a school with stunning facilities, set in rural surroundings, yet easily reached from Bournemouth, Poole, Dorchester, Ringwood and the Isle of Purbeck. The school has an excellent academic record and other strengths across the board: in Sport, Music, Art, Drama, Design Technology, and in Outdoor Learning. Please see our website
