Job description

School Nurse 

Hours: Full time, term time only

Required: as soon as possible 

Bournemouth Collegiate School is a rapidly growing co-educational independent school situated on the south coast. The School has extensive facilities, on two sites. BCS provides a nurturing environment where the happiness of the pupils comes first.

BCS is looking to recruit a school nurse into our medical team. The successful candidate may potentially be required to work across both sites at our Preparatory School in Poole and the Senior School in Southbourne. Our nursing team provides an excellent standard of care for our boarders and for our day pupils from age 3 to 18 (boarding 11+).

Working as part of this team, we would expect exceptional first aid skills, meticulous attention to detail, a calm disposition and resilience to multi-task across a variety of priorities. Knowledge of allergies, medication administration and management of ongoing health conditions is a must. Competent IT skills are essential, as all records are kept electronically and accuracy of data input is paramount.

You should ideally have experience of working an education setting but this is not essential. 

You will need to work effectively individually and as part of a team, using personal skills, knowledge and experience to deliver and provide high quality care.
