Job overview
Nursery Manager
Location: Stepping Stones Day Nursery, South Way, Bognor Regis, PO21 5EZ
Reports to: Principal of Southway Primary School
We are looking to recruit an excellent Nursery leader with a strong track record in raising standards, community working, and developing relationships. This is an exciting and highly rewarding role as it provides a real opportunity to make a difference and improve the life chances of our youngest children and families.
Are you someone who is an enthusiastic, warm, and committed leader who models the highest expectations for children and our community. Stepping Stones Nursery is a delightful and engaging nursery; this is thanks to a strong team of staff who expect the best, have excellent relationships, and a strong commitment to giving children the best start in life. You will continue to develop these teams and relationships to further build a Nursery in which children succeed in all aspects of their early development. Working with a variety of leaders across the campus will be a key priority.
The Nursery is situated on a vibrant campus that includes Southway Primary School (3 – 11 years), The Regis School (11-18 Secondary School), The Arena Sports Centre, and The Phoenix Centre (Community and Youth Centre) – all under the umbrella of The United Learning Trust. It is crucial that the successful candidate works collaboratively with leaders from these different settings to ensure a cohesive and supportive environment for all our young people.
As a leader within United Learning, you will be joining a team of highly skilled colleagues from over 100 independent and state schools who work collaboratively and share a vision of bringing out the best from everyone. You will have strong practical support from all the main ‘back office’ services and from a central education team. Your career and development will benefit from the wide range of opportunities and the professional development support that a larger organisation can offer.
We are keen to receive applications from a diverse range of candidates, including black and minority ethnic leaders who are currently under-represented at leadership level. Whoever you are, if you have a strong track record of enhancing early childhood education and a passion for nurturing young minds, we would love to hear from you.
We would welcome the opportunity to show you around our campus, meet some of our leaders and explain how this role will positively impact the lives of so many children and families. We can’t wait to meet you.
The nursery will be closed over the Christmas period from 6pm, 23rd December until 7.30am, Thursday 2nd Jan. To arrange a visit to the nursery and the campus please email: diane.willson@southwayprimary.co.uk or call 07889 461651.
N.B. Southway Primary and The Regis School close on Friday 20th December.
The closing date for applications is 8.30am on Monday 6th January 2025.

Our vision is to provide an excellent education so that all young people are able to make a success of their lives and, if we are to realise this vision, we need to make sure we attract, develop and reward the key ingredient, our high quality, hardworking staff.
The Regis is a school that we all feel proud of and our teachers are passionate about their work. We know that teaching can be a challenging profession, but with the support we offer and a commitment to seeing the best in each other, we work tirelessly to find creative ways to educate. We have access to a Group-wide curriculum, an intranet platform that enables sharing of resources and opportunities for work shadowing and mentorship.
The Regis School is a secondary 11-18 school with over 1600 students on roll. We are an inclusive comprehensive school that aims to achieve the best for every student. This philosophy is reflected in the successful Sixth Form of 160+ students who are offered a broad range of academic and vocational programmes. Over 70% of our students progress to Higher Education each year.
The Regis School has a well-qualified, dedicated supportive and enthusiastic staff team. We have approximately 200 staff, all of whom are committed to providing the best possible education for our students. As one of the biggest employers in Bognor Regis, we emphasise the learning of adults and young people. Staff are involved in further study, research projects and in the training of teachers in partnership with local universities.
The school boasts superb facilities in all subject areas. Each teaching area has audio-video facilities and a range of ICT suites throughout the school provides access to specialist equipment. All teachers have a laptop provided, to support teaching and administration.
The Regis School aspires to be an outstanding centre of learning, serving its community and transforming lives.

Academic achievement is at the heart of what we do, ensuring students leave with the highest qualifications that enable them to be competitive in the global economy. We have a strict behaviour policy that enables teachers to teach in classrooms that are mainly free from disruption. Students who prevent others from learning are given a single warning, then learn elsewhere in the school under the supervision of senior staff.
