Support pupils at Brunstane Primary School in Edinburgh in a permanent, on-site role with The City of Edinburgh Council. This Pupil Support Worker position (job ref 11333_1762444252) offers term-time hours of 27.5 per week across 39 weeks, with a salary of £26,337–£28,835 (pro‑rata for part‑time or sessional working) and annual progression within the grade. You will work directly with children and, where relevant, protected adults, helping with learning, behaviour and daily routines in a school setting. The post is regulated under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007, so the successful candidate must join the PVG Scheme or complete an update check; an Overseas Criminal Record Check is required if you’ve spent three months or more outside the UK in the last five years.

This role will suit experienced carers, teaching assistants, parents returning to work and others who value supportive, hands-on work and term-time patterns that fit family life. The council promotes an inclusive culture, is a Disability Confident employer and is moving to behavioural and technical interviews that assess how you bring Respect, Integrity and Flexibility to the role.
