Job description
We are an independent pre-preparatory and nursery school for 70 girls and boys aged 3-7 years, previously known as The New School. In 2021, we became part of the Exeter School family.
The pre-prep school is in a former Victorian chapel on a private, wide, tree-lined avenue within an acre of grounds. Just three miles from central Exeter in the village of Exminster, it provides an oasis of calm from the bustle of city life.
We are seeking a term time School Administrator with a sound knowledge of administrative procedures, to ensure the efficient and effective operation and organisation of the school office. We are a small, happy school and a great place to work where you will quickly feel part of the team.
Applicants will be proficient in literacy and numeracy, with advanced skills in Microsoft Word and Excel, along with strong administration and exceptional interpersonal and communication skills.
This is a permanent post, working from 08.30 am until 3.30 pm Monday to Friday during term time. The role will attract a salary of £24,000 (pro rata) and is immediately available. Generous benefits include free school lunch during term time, free on-site parking, pension scheme and membership of the school’s health cash plan.
Applications must include a completed Exeter School application form. For safeguarding purposes, a CV alone is not sufficient.
Closing date for applications is 14 March 2024 and we anticipate interviews will take place on 25 March 2024.
The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment and responsibility. Applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.
All staff working in the school during the school day will have some contact with children and will therefore be in regulated activity. In your role you are likely to be regularly working directly with, and be responsible for, children in your care.
The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the school is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions (including those which are "spent" unless they are "protected" under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children.
