Westminster Under School is a friendly and welcoming place to work, with a real sense of community. Staff members quickly become part of the rhythm of life, both inside and outside the classroom. Social events are regular and varied, with plenty of opportunity to socialise outside working hours. Support staff as much as teaching staff are encouraged to embrace the School’s day-to-day activities, whether that be attending a concert or a sports fixture.
It is a particularly exciting and significant time to be joining Westminster. As part of Westminster Under School and Westminster School’s move to become fully co-educational, girls will be joining the Under School for the first time in 2026, at the 7+ and 11+ entry points, and a brand new pre-prep will open for boys and girls at the 4+ entry point. In 2028, girls will be joining at 13+ at Westminster School.
The role
The Under School is seeking a talented and enthusiastic Gap Year Student to work for the whole academic year, from September 2025 until the first week of July 2026.
Gap Students assist in all areas of the day-to-day running of the School, from pupil registration to supervising at lunch and break time, to helping out with extra-curricular activities, such as concerts and plays, and taking part in school trips. They provide administrative support to members of staff at the Under School, including photocopying and other support as necessary. Gap Students report principally to the school receptionist.
This role is suited to someone who is confident and self-directed, and who enjoys working with and engaging with younger people. The ideal applicant will possess excellent administrative and communication skills and will be extremely organised. The role may be particularly beneficial for someone who is considering a career in education, though this is not essential.
This is a term-time only role with a salary of £21,547.48 (actual), equating to an FTE of £27,952.76 per annum.
If you apply for this role and do not hear from us within three weeks of the closing date, your application has not been successful on this occasion. Please do continue to check back for future roles.
