Portsmouth High School has a vacancy for a term time only minibus driver. This is a permanent part time position with a split shift during school term time only. The job would particularly suit someone who enjoys working with children and wants a rewarding role with free time in the middle of the day. This role could also be fulfilled as a job share if you would rather work only the mornings or afternoons.

A minibus driving licence is an essential part of the role. However, for the right candidate, we would consider a full car licence holder who is willing to work towards the D1 licence. You would need to commit to a further 2 years in the post on completion of successful training.

This is a great hands-on role and a chance to be an ambassador for Portsmouth High School and the GDST Trust. You will build supportive and professional relationships with the children and their parents/carers. In addition to driving, responsibilities include conducting safety checks.

The salary is paid over 12 months and includes holiday pay.

Portsmouth High School is part of the GDST (Girls’ Day School Trust) - the leading network of independent girls’ schools in the UK. The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers, online checks, and the DBS.
