  • Conduct and review risk assessments for outdoor activities and the woodland site
  • Ensure safe use of tools, natural materials, and equipment when appropriate
  • Maintain safeguarding and health and safety standards in line with setting policies
  • Maintain the Forest School area and ensure resources are safe, sustainable, and well organised

  • Keep accurate records of sessions, observations, and risk assessments
  • Ensure compliance with safeguarding, first aid, and outdoor learning policies
  • Contribute to planning, evaluation, and development of the Forest School programme

Requirements:

  • Level 3 qualification in Early Years Education or equivalent
  • Recognised Forest School Leader Level 3 qualification
  • Experience working with children aged 3–5
  • Experience planning and delivering outdoor learning sessions
  • Understanding of safeguarding and child protection procedures
What we offer:
  • Free childcare for the first month and 52% discount (based on working hours) to support your family
  • 31 days of holiday (inclusive of national bank holidays and the Christmas closure week), plus your birthday off
  • Access to The National College full of training and courses
