Edinburgh, United Kingdom Angus Council Full time

Job Description

Based at Southmuir Primary School, Prosen Road, Kirriemuir (ELC Model 1).

This job is workstyle 1 - Fixed.

In this workstyle most of your time is spent undertaking the direct delivery of front-line services work. Depending on your role there may be a limited requirement to access a specific council location during the course of the working week if you are not delivering your service at a council location.

Angus Council currently operates the following models in their early learning and childcare settings:

ELC Model 1 – children’s funded entitlement is set days at 6 hours per day

ELC Model 2 – children’s funded entitlement is set days at 7½ hours per day

ELC Model 3 – children’s funded entitlement is set days at 5 hours per day

ELC settings in models 1 and 2 will open over term-time.

ELC Model 3 is different as these settings are open for more hours every day and are only closed to children for two weeks over the Christmas/New Year period, three weeks in July/August and a further three public holidays and five in-service days. Therefore, they are offering ELC over 46.6 weeks of the year. This also means staff can use their annual leave and non-working time in a different way to staff working term-time. Whilst some of the leave will be decided in advance (that is, when the setting is closed), staff working in these settings will also be able to apply for additional time off while the setting is open.

Working 36.25 hours per week, you will work up to days per year on various working patterns (Monday to Friday), term time working or equivalent.

Working collaboratively with schools and ELC staff to deliver a flexible, high quality, stimulating education and care-centred service designed to meet the needs of young children and their families, you will take a lead role in the ELC setting, in collaboration with the SEYPs, through modelling and promoting good practice.

You will also take lead responsibility, with SEYPs for planning and implementing curricular programmes and lead the day-to-day supervision of EYP and EYA staff in the operation of the ELC.

Membership of the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) or commitment to gain registration with the SSSC in accordance with their requirements is essential.

Please note interviews will be held Monday, 16 December .

Requirements

You must have the ability to become a member of the PVG Scheme.

Please refer to job outline and person specification for further details and requirements for this job.
