Would you like to be part of our school team, helping our children to thrive in a safe and welcoming school environment?

We are looking for a new cleaner to work mornings from 5.00am-8.00am or afternoons from 4:00pm-7:00pm. However, these timings can be flexible. The successful applicant will be enthusiastic, efficient, flexible, friendly and reliable. The posts are for 15 hrs per week, Monday - Friday during term time, 3 hours per day. We employ two cleaners, so the successful applicant will be working alongside a colleague.

Additionally, there are hours of overtime that can be claimed for additional cleaning. 

We are currently offering this position on a temporary contract, and are happy to explain the reasons for this for any applicant. 

Applicants must have a desire to work as a member of a team and have a flexible and willing approach, and be able to work efficiently and effectively to be high standard. Previous experience preferred, but not essential as training will be given.

Please come and see us - visits are encouraged and can be arranged by contacting the school office.

Ryarsh Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Appointment to the position will be subject to an Enhanced Criminal Records Bureau Disclosure check.

Information about the school

Schools across the country will spend a great deal of time analysing the measurable outcomes of children: assessment scores, progress measures, work in books, in-class contributions and conversations, but schools do so much more than that which can be measured. Whilst we are very proud of the high level of outcomes achieved by our children, we place great importance on developing the type of culture that allows children and adults to thrive.

When you become part of Ryarsh Primary School, you become part of a family which we all take great pride in being part of. In our view, communities are brought together by location, circumstance or shared characteristics. We define ourselves as a family as we are bonded by relationships.

Within our Ryarsh family, every person, no matter their age, is a learner. As part of our community of learners, we help all minds flourish because every single person is provided with the opportunity to learn, develop and grow. At our school, we are knowledgeable, research based and investigative as this helps to shape our innovative, reflective teaching practices and our continuous drive for improvement.

We take actions that are considered and measured as we listen and empower all stake-holders to be involved in the decisions that matter to them. We appreciate that every single person involved in our school plays a crucial role in the magic weaving that is experienced at Ryarsh Primary School.
