Part time, Permanent

Actual salary £22,143.16 (FTE £36,711.28)

Required from September 2025

STAHS is a vibrant school supported by a diverse and enthusiastic community of staff, pupils, parents, alumni and friends. It is important that our staff reflect the diversity of our community, and we therefore welcome and encourage applications from people of all genders and sexual orientation, those from Black, Asian and other minority ethnic backgrounds, and those with disabilities.

Our welcoming independent school has a vacancy for a qualified Nurse with experience of working with children and young people to join our existing School Nursing team. The role will be based at the Prep School in Wheathampstead, however, as STAHS is part of the St Albans Education Group (STAEG), there may be occasions where you will be required to work at the STAHS Senior School in St Albans or at a STAEG school.

The successful candidate will be part of an extensive pastoral team but will also need to have the ability to work independently and be pro-active in promoting the on-going health and welfare needs of pupils at the Prep School. The role benefits from the support of the Senior School's Head Nurse.

This permanent position is offered on a part-time basis, 27.5 hours per week with a 30-minute unpaid break each day, Monday - Friday 9.30am - 3.30pm, term time (including INSET) plus 8 days.

The role would ideally suit an adult or paediatric registered nurse who has experience working with primary age children and dealing with minor injuries, including sports injuries and also managing medical conditions such as diabetes, asthma and food allergies. Previous experience working in a school will be beneficial but not essential. The successful candidate will need to hold current registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) and have at least six months post registration experience.

In return we offer:

Continued Professional Development (CPD) opportunities
An opportunity to join our warm, vibrant and ambitious independent day school
Use of sports facilities, including gym*
An extensive benefits package; free lunches, generous pension scheme, free life assurance, subsidised private medical insurance
Competitive salary

* Conditions apply

Closing date for applications is 9am Thursday 3 July 2025

We reserve the right to close the vacancy early should we be able to appoint a suitable candidate, therefore please submit your application early to avoid disappointment.

The High School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.
