Wraparound Supervisor

Brentwood Preparatory School is a large, academically selective IAPS school with outstanding facilities, small class sizes and a happy and supportive staff team. It is part of Brentwood School, a 3-18 HMC school of over 1900 pupils, just 20 minutes from London Liverpool Street.

The wraparound staff are a supportive team who proactively help each other and enjoy working with children. The provision is highly valued by the Brentwood Prep parents and is essential in supporting the time demands of their professions. 

The key purpose of the wraparound supervisor role is to provide a safe and positive environment for children aged 3 to 11 in the after school provision. This position is term-time only and initially on a one-year contract.

This includes assisting with setting up activities, serving the pre-prepared dinner and ensuring children are collected by their parents or designated adult.

The successful candidate will hold a Level 3 childcare qualification, experience in a similar setting, and strong knowledge of EYFS guidelines. Reliability, flexibility, teamwork, and excellent communication are essential. A commitment to safeguarding children and promoting their welfare is a must.

Brentwood School ethos

We embody our values of virtue, learning and manners just as those before us have been doing since 1557. We are proud of our modern inclusive community which is shaped by our Christian Foundation. Our pupils are confident without being arrogant, they look out for each other, they do the right thing, even when no-one is looking and they respect difference: you will see a footballer enjoying lunch with a chorister and a dance captain running a recycling project with a young chess enthusiast.

We help our pupils to solve problems. In partnership with parents, we teach them to persevere after setbacks, adopt a growth mindset, and challenge the norm. We encourage them to ask questions in class and take control of their own learning. Of course, they work hard and enjoy great success in and out of the classroom, and once they’ve left us, many go on to use and develop their leadership skills and achieve beyond their expectations, always remembering what Brentwood has taught them.

That’s who we are. We are Brentwood.

Staff across both the Prep and Senior School enjoy a bespoke collaborative approach to professional development. We believe in being a research engaged school, with those that facilitate our in-house research programme being trained by the Institute of Education. We support many of our staff in obtaining external accreditation across a range of fields and are engaged with a number of national and international organisations. We are a highly supportive school that values the contributions made by a motivated and intellectually curious staff. There are a range of ways that we enhance our staff experience; free gym membership, benefits hub, free lunch, free tickets to school concerts and performance to name but a few. Brentwood School has its own pay scale that is significantly above the maintained sector.
