At Gracelands, we pride ourselves on our creative and holistic approach to pre-nursery and nursery education. Our approach empowers children to make their own choices and helps them to be self-motivated individuals. We offer a play-based curriculum, with the children at the centre of everything we do.

Gracelands Nursery School is in a cluster of 2 nursery schools along with Jakeman Nursery School, and cluster leaders and teachers work collaboratively to provide high standards of education. The Nursery Officer will work within a team based in one of the 2 nursery rooms: 2 to 3year olds or 3 to 4 year olds.

As well as exceptional and inclusive provision for children and families, we are committed to professional development, and provide opportunities for learning and collaboration across the cluster of 2 schools and the wider Federation.

Our settings are culturally diverse with a large number of languages spoken. We have a reputation for supporting children with a range of complex special educational needs and disabilities, as well as support for families who may have additional challenges in their lives.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the wellbeing of all children, and expect our staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Suitability checks will be undertaken including background, identity, qualification, work history and two professional references.
