Training Outcome:Potential for a Teaching Assistant role following completion of the apprenticeship.Employer Description:All of our staff and governors work hard to make our school one that is safe and nurturing as well as stimulating and exciting for our children. Our curriculum encompasses the demands of the National Curriculum which is enhanced and developed to match the needs of our children through a range of Quests – we believe that all children have the potential to become confident and independent learners. We try to support them to strive for this and start them on a journey of exploration that will last them a lifetime. This enquiry based learning is supported by the development of our five Learning Behaviours which we believe mastering each 'behaviour' prepares our children well for the world in which we send them.
We are fortunate to have amazing school grounds – our classrooms frame the brightly painted playground we call the quad and there is also a large school field and top playground where there is a range of wooden play equipment and a bespoke trim trail. We have a developed forest school area with a pond, which was opened by the Lord-Lieutenant of Somerset and many outside learning areas within our large school site. We are also very lucky at Bruton Primary School to have our very own swimming pool which we use as much as we can in the Summer Term.Working Hours :09:00 – 15:30 Monday – Friday.
