Nursery Manager - Castle Court School

About the role

We are looking for an inspirational Nursery Manager to oversee the day-to-day running of our Nursery, as well as guide the lovely Nursery Team through future developments. This is a key role not only in the Nursery but as part of the wider school community. Our new team member will need to be qualified to work in Early Years at Level 3 or above, and have proven experience of working in a similar setting in a supervisory capacity.

The role is available from January 2027 and is offered on a permanent basis. We would like our Nursery Manager to work from 8am-4.30pm every day during term times, but there is potential for growth and development of the role and it may be that the position becomes year-round from September 2027.

Further Information

Our Nursery is a wonderful place to be. From the tender age of 2, we encourage children to learn through play; however, we also give academic, sporting and creative input in the form of Sports, Dance and Music lessons every week. There are Parents' Evenings in the Autumn and Spring Terms, and the children receive a written report in the Summer Term. We use EvidenceMe to write and record observations for parents.

About Us

Castle Court is a day Prep School located in the heart of Dorset; we seek to appoint staff who will be keen to be involved in the full breadth of school life and supportive of the school’s Christian foundation. Our setting is idyllic: 55 acres of magnificent playing-fields, playgrounds, gardens and woods; a school with stunning facilities, set in rural surroundings, yet easily reached from Bournemouth, Poole, Dorchester, Ringwood and the Isle of Purbeck. We have an excellent academic record and other strengths across the board: in Sport, Music, Art, Drama, Design Technology, and in Outdoor Learning.

Our aims are:

That the child’s learning and well-being are at the heart of all that we do.
That the educational experience is knowledge-rich, rigorous and well-balanced, and academic expectations are continually exceeded.
That each child is nurtured through outstanding pastoral care so that they can flourish inside and outside of the classroom.
That each child is provided with a strong foundation and compass for life - prepared with the skills needed for future success in a global world.
