Summary
Early Years / Montessori Teacher - Term Time Only - Monday to Thursday 8.00/8.30 - 4.00/4.30
Hotwells Children’s House is a non-profit, private, Montessori setting in the
grounds of, but independent from, Hotwells Primary School. We take children from age 2 until they start Primary School. In September 2025 we will have up to 24 children in each day, with around 8 younger children staying for the mornings only, and around 16 children staying the full day. We work to better than statutory ratios and prioritise wellbeing for everyone in our community. We are an inclusive setting, providing education and care for a diverse cohort of children.
You will be an integral part of our small team, taking responsibility for the education, care and safety of children attending the setting. You will form warm and nurturing relationships with children and families, and will prepare a rich and stimulating learning environment. You will work closely with the setting Managers and the rest of the team, ensuring that provision is of exceptional quality, reflective, and responsive to the needs of the children. You’ll start your day welcoming children to the morning work cycle, supporting children to access the learning environment before gathering them for a group time before lunch. You’ll support the group to come and have lunch before spending the afternoon with a smaller group of the older children. You’ll spend equal amounts of time inside and outside, and you’ll lead in different areas of provision, following the needs and interests of the children as they arise. Contact us for a full recruitment pack to find out more about the role and the benefits of working with us.
