Wise Owls is an alternative, creative and forward thinking education setting for under 5’s with space for 35 children. We consider the children’s interests and thoughts as the starting point for much of our planning. We believe that children learn from each other and although the learning environments are differentiated on each floor, children are encouraged to mix and play together.
We are currently looking for a Coordinator to lead one of our friendly and hardworking teams. We are seeking exceptional, professional individuals with the ability to take ownership of the job role. Applicants ideally must have experience of leading a team, be approachable and adaptable.
Applicants must have a level three in childcare or above; experience of working with children aged between 2-3 years; good communication skills with the confidence and ability to liaise with colleagues, children and parents; excellent knowledge of the EYFS and safeguarding; practical experience of planning play opportunities, making observations, recording and planning future learning. A good working knowledge of the online learning platform ‘Famly’ is desirable. Applicants need to be approachable, adaptable, organised and motivated.
Applicants with specific interests would be particularly welcome.
Wise Owls is keen to support staff with ongoing learning and professional development. We offer paid holidays and are a Brighton Living Wage Employer. Shift patterns are as follows; 4 full days and 1 half day. We are especially looking for people with organisational skills and an open mind who will complement our wonderful and varied practitioners.
