The working times will be between 30 minutes and 45 minutes both in the morning and afternoon; times dependent on the schools.
As you will be working a short-split shift throughout the day, it is recommended that you live within a short distance of the site.
A uniform is provided to protect you against the elements. Some basic IT skills and personal email address are required.
