<li>Supervision of washing/gelling hands before the meal and the orderly entry of children into the dining hall. (Whistle used as directed by Headteacher).</li>
<li>Supervision of pupils in the dining hall including general advice on table manners and procedures e.g. correct use of knife and fork. (A positive approach to children’s manner and behaviour is to be promoted to create an orderly eating environment – whistles are not to be used in the school building).</li>
<li>Supervision of pupils in playground areas and on school premises after lunch. This may include assisting in appropriate activities in wet weather and once again identifying and promoting good behaviour.</li>
<li>Ensure that children eat of a clean surface during lunchtimes and maintain the current procedures to ensure the children enjoy as full a playtime as possible. It is the main priority that you should work as part of a team and as a result supervise the children whilst they are playing outside.&nbsp; The preparation of the hall for afternoon curriculum activities is the responsibility of the Catering Department. &nbsp;Whilst the aim is to work collaboratively for the welfare of the childrenit is important to maintain a maximum cover in the play ground.&nbsp; Welfare Staff are to work with Catering to maximise this.</li>
<li>You are asked by way of securing the children’s Health and Safety to administer simple first aid where necessary (training will be provided for Welfare Assistants).
