A Wonderful Career Opportunity!
Are you a happy, caring, and responsible individual who loves working with children? We are seeking to appoint a Dining Hall Supervisor to join our experienced, supportive team.

- Playground Engagement: Supervising children during their breaks and actively leading fun play activities on the playground.
- Safety & Care: Keeping a watchful eye on children with food allergies, managing quick clean-ups of spillages and providing a caring first response to minor playground cuts or grazes.
Are You the Perfect Fit?
We would love to hear from you if you:
- Have a great sense of humour and a positive, patient attitude.
- Can maintain a professional, calm manner at all times.
- Possess strong time-management and organisational skills.
- Are committed to the safety, inclusion and welfare of all children.
What The Breakspear School Offers You:
- A school with high aspirations for both its pupils and its staff.
