  • Transport: A driver's licence and access to a vehicle are highly preferred to ensure reliable travel to the north end of Horley.

  • DBS: Must hold an Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or be willing to process one immediately).

  • Opportunity to work at a well-regarded local primary school.
