Make sure to read the full description below, and please apply immediately if you are confident you meet all the requirements.


Red Bus works very hard to be an exceptional place for children and also an exceptional place for staff to work.

Things are tough at the moment in many industries but we continue to strive to make Red Bus an employer of choice.

Our Coombe Dingle setting is rated Outstanding with Ofsted and is situated within beautiful grounds in a lovely historic building.

We really take care of our environments too, we are very well resourced and our parents tell us what an amazing place Red Bus is for their children.


Our Practitioners strive to be great at their job, whether they have just qualified, qualified some time ago and want to get back into childcare, or if they have solid experience already as a Practitioner.

Level 2 Practitioner

Level 3 Practitioner


We also very much value candidates with higher qualifications (eg graduate) and those who already hold a recognised Forest School qualification or a SEND Level 3.

We pay a premium for these qualifications (additional £1000 per year for a full time position higher than advertised pay)


For those with a minimum Level 3 in Early Years we have Lead Practitioners who are part of the room management team, and are role models for the rest of the team.

They often excel in their own areas of expertise too and we have room 'Champions' for this in area such as SEN, Outdoor Play and others.

  • £2000 recruitment bonus. £1000 paid after your first month with us and the remaining £1000 paid having successfully completed your probation. Please note should you leave the company within 12 months of starting you will be required to repay the bonus in full.
