This midday post is a new role that is now required to support the staffing team. There may be 15-20 pupils on site and they have lunch on a rota basis currently. Pupils may have varying behavioural and educational needs including ASD, ADHD, ODD and social, emotional, and mental health needs. Duties will include collection of the lunches, serving to pupils, distribution over the site, supervision of pupils over lunch and cleaning away afterwards so that lessons can continue swiftly.

We require support with the organisation and clearing away of breakfast, and of lunch distribution.
