School Nursing Healthcare Support Worker

Connect for Health


Date: 1 day ago
City: Stratford-upon-Avon
Contract type: Full time
About The Role

If you believe in showing up for others this is your place.

We’re looking for a School Nursing Healthcare Support Worker to join our Connect for Health team in Warwickshire - a school nurse-led service supporting children, young people and families to live healthier, happier lives.

You’ll work directly in schools and communities, delivering vital parts of the Healthy Child Programme, including the National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP) and Health Needs Assessments (HNA). From running classroom sessions to supporting community events, you’ll help young people understand their health, feel heard and stay safe.

You’ll support the Health Champion network, promote health messages, respond to day-to-day enquiries and use IT systems confidently to collect accurate data. Whether working alone or as part of a supportive team, you’ll play a key role in shaping better health outcomes.

You must hold a full driving licence, have access to your own transport and be able to travel across Warwickshire. This role is term time only, meaning you’ll work Warwickshire school terms, taking leave during school holidays. Your working days will be Monday to Thursday.

This is a service that believes in people. We’ll invest in your development, support your wellbeing and make sure you feel part of something bigger.

Apply now and be the reason a child or young person gets the right start.

About You

Are you someone who brings warmth, care and purpose to everything you do? Do you want your work to reflect your values and make a difference for children every day?

You’ll be someone who is calm under pressure, naturally empathetic and confident working with children, families and professionals. Whether you are delivering a session in a school hall or chatting one to one with a pupil, you know how to listen, how to engage and how to make young people feel safe.

To join us, you will need:

  • NVQ Level 2 in Health and Social Care
  • Experience working with children, young people or families
  • Confidence using IT systems for data collection and communication
  • A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team
  • Commitment to safeguarding, inclusion and doing the right thing

An NVQ Level 3 and experience in community or school health settings would be a bonus, but we care more about who you are and how you show up.

Bring your values, your voice, and your commitment to a team that puts people first.
