Contract type: Permanent

Work pattern: 7.5 hours per week, Term time only + 5 training days (39 weeks)

Working hours: 1.5 hours per day, between 11.30am - 1.00pm (plus possible extra hours)

Salary information: Scale 2, £4,316 - £4,387 per annum (depending on experience)

Start date: ASAP

Pentland Field School is an all-through school that meets the educational needs of around 170 children and young adults aged 4-19 with a range of learning disabilities, including those who may be autistic and those who have physical or sensory needs. Pentland Field School, a member of the Eden Academy Trust, is a good school, making a difference for the pupils we work with. We help them make progress in all areas of life, become young adults who know their own value, and become active members of the communities in which they live. Pupils work in small classes (average 10 pupils) with supportive and skilled teams.

The Role We are looking for an enthusiastic and proactive School Meals Supervisory Assistant (SMSA) to join our vibrant team. The successful candidate will play a key role in ensuring a smooth and efficient lunchtime service for our pupils.

You will be working with our pupils, engaging them in play, helping them to manage social situations and providing basic first aid. At times you will be required to assist with: personal intimate care in line with care plans, and feeding in line with specified feeding plans.

Above all, you will treat our pupils with professional warmth and compassion, so that they know that at all times, they are valued, cared for and feel safe.

We can offer you:

  • A friendly and approachable senior leadership team.
  • A hardworking, committed and knowledgeable staff community who are willing to share their knowledge and skills with anyone who has a desire to learn.
  • A comprehensive induction programme for new staff, followed by access to continuous personal and professional development.
  • Teaching teams who work collaboratively and in an inclusive way
  • A commitment to the wellbeing of staff and pupils, including staff led wellbeing initiatives
  • Free access to a comprehensive staff wellbeing package, offering a range of wellbeing and medical advice and care
  • Paid CPD up to 7.5 hours per year
  • The opportunity to work additional SMSA hours. In some cases, this has led to a casual LSA contract, and some SMSAs have progressed to TA roles
  • Part of a dynamic special school multi-academy trust, with opportunities for career development.
  • Excellent transport links, by road or public transport. The nearest underground station is a 5 min walk from the school, and you can be in central London within 20 minutes.

Diversity Statement

At Eden Academy Trust, we value and actively embrace diversity. We believe that a diverse school community strengthens learning, enriches experiences, and helps every child thrive.

Across our schools, we are committed to creating a culture where all individuals regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, or background are respected, represented, and supported.

We understand the role of inclusive education in preparing young people for a complex and diverse society. We challenge discrimination, recognise and celebrate difference, and work continuously to promote equity and opportunity in everything we do.

Our commitment to inclusion runs through our curriculum, our staffing and leadership, our policies, and our day-to-day interactions. We strive to practise cultural humility, anti-racism, and equitable approaches that meet the needs of all our pupils.

Safeguarding Statement

The Eden Academy Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be subject to an Enhanced DBS check and other pre-employment checks.

The Eden Academy Trust may, from time to time, require an employee to be relocated temporarily or permanently to one of its other schools. Any proposal to relocate will be carried out with due consultation and reasonable notice.

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
