Nursery - Early Years Level 3 Apprenticeship
6 months ago
Welcome to Hungry Caterpillars - A multi award winning, family run children’s nursery group. Currently celebrating 25 years of inspiring little minds and providing the very best in early years education and childcare. We are very proud of our success, which has been achieved by having an amazing team of staff and educators, who are dedicated and passionate about the work they do and the impact they have on shaping children’s lives. Our ethos is to invest in our staff and ensure they are offered the very best in personal development, training opportunities and career progression, together with a competitive salary and a happy, welcoming workplace.
**Why become an Apprentice Educator with Hungry Caterpillars?**
All Apprentices start on an initial 18 month contract and upon completion will have the opportunity to progress onto a permanent practitioner contract (which would also result in an uplift in pay). The salaries for this contract are currently as follows:
- **For unqualified apprentices, £15,018 (Level 3) is the annual salary for the first 12 months of the apprenticeship**; after that the annual salary will be in line with National Minimum Wage until you qualify, at which time the annual salary will be in line with our Level 3 qualified staff pay-scales. **If you are already qualified as a Level 2, then you will be paid on the Level 2 salary scale which is currently £24,731**
You’ll be trained to carry out the same post as a Level 3 practitioner, providing safe, high quality education and care that meets the individual needs of the children attending our setting with the support of your assessor, mentor, manager and team.
At the end of your training, you will achieve a Level 3 qualification, gain valuable work experience and have the opportunity to secure a permanent role in early years.
