Description

The children, families, staff and governors of our successful and over-subscribed schools are seeking to appoint an additional Wellbeing Mentor to join both our enthusiastic, dedicated and motivated teams providing Early Help support for our children and community, starting in September 2023.

Both schools aim to meet the children's individual needs, offer them exciting learning opportunities and a chance to develop as an individual in a safe, caring and motivational environment based around our visions of PRIDE and KINDER.
