SENCO / Early Years Specialist - Preschool (Rainbow)

We are looking for an experienced SENCo and Level 3 qualified Early Years Practitioner to join our Preschool team! The dual role allows for effective reflection and implementation in practice as well as dedicated SEND administration time.

As SENCo you will be responsible for the day-to-day operation of the setting’s Inclusion Policy to ensure that children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) are fully included into the early years setting. As the SENCo you will get a day per week of office based time to complete all relevant paperwork.

As an Early Years Specialist, you will provide and maintain an emotionally secure, safe, consistent, supportive and caring environment, appropriate to the needs of individual children and their families.

We are an independent charity in the heart of Easton committed to quality child-centred early education.

Attached to our excellent outdoor provision we have a studio offering woodwork, clay and other medias as well as an allotment.

We are proud of the role we play as educators in our community and are dedicated to developing quality practice and thinking about the ‘bigger picture’. All staff have opportunities to develop their own knowledge and skills in all aspects of early education through regular trainings (in house and externally) as well as attending 6-weekly supervisions. We want to know what inspires your passion in early years and do what we can to keep that fire burning- if there is a particular area of practice you’d be interested in taking a lead in we want to hear from you!

Anti-racist practice and trauma informed approaches are at the heart of everything we do, from our curriculum and learning environment all the way through to our policies, leadership approaches and staff wellbeing commitments.
