A leading Cobham independent school has a fantastic opportunity for a Registered Nurse (RN Adult or RN Child) to join their pastoral care team as a School Nurse.
Offering internationally-recognised day and boarding education for children aged 2 – 18 years, the school is committed to supporting pupils to achieve excellence in all areas, not just academics. Through constant investment in its teaching and support force, world-class facilities, and the health and wellbeing of the whole community, the school has established an outstanding reputation for high achievement, a comprehensive range of extra-curriculars, and a learning environment that enables pupils to grow into well-rounded, thriving adults.
As a School Nurse, you will support health care and promotion for all pupils, staff, and visitors. Under the direction of the Group Lead Nurse and alongside a committed team, you’ll provide nursing care to the school community with the aid of cutting-edge resources, provide a safe space for mental and emotional wellbeing, and assist with initiatives that foster health and safety awareness across this beautiful countryside campus.
This is permanent, part-time role for a School Nurse (4 days per week, Tues-Fri), term-time only (42 weeks per year).
Previous school nurse experience would be a distinct advantage but is not essential – if you have some experience in caring for children and are approachable, kind, and passionate about children’s health and welfare, this could be the perfect role for you.
