Lunchtime Supervisor

We are incredibly proud of our school and the children who come here to learn and soar to success. Our school, built in 1950, is a well-established part of the community and has a heritage which sees ex-pupils returning as parents and even grandparents.

Our core mission is to offer our wonderful children outstanding teaching and learning experiences and the very best opportunities, in and beyond the classroom. Learning at Manor Park is innovative, fun and exciting, capturing pupils’ interests and extending their knowledge and skills. We aim to raise aspirations, inspire a lifelong love of learning and create memories to last a lifetime. As you explore the website, you will see the range of opportunities that our children have, and the local, national and global links we have forged. We are particularly proud of our Manor Park University, which extends and enriches our curriculum offer. In addition, our excellent pastoral care ensures that all children are nurtured and thrive in a supportive and caring environment.

We’re looking for a caring and enthusiastic Lunchtime Support Assistant to join our team and help create a safe, happy, and engaging environment for our children during the lunchtime period.

You will;

• Support and supervise children during lunch service and playground activities

• Engage with children to ensure a positive experience in the dining hall and during play

• Encourage participation in a variety of indoor and outdoor lunchtime activities

• Promote safety, wellbeing, and inclusion throughout the lunchtime session

We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive school community. If you’re passionate about making lunchtime a joyful part of the school day, we’d love to hear from you.
