Description

We follow lunchtime supervisors at Beaufort Primary in Woking and St Paul's and All Hallows in Tottenham through a typical lunch hour to see the different strategies they use to provide the best experience possible for pupils and staff.At Beaufort, senior midday supervisor and teaching assistant Di Anderson and her team are always working to improve the experience. They reward pupils with a Top Table every Friday, let children take packed lunches outside, provide an indoor club for children who find the playground too intimidating, and run regular meetings to ensure the team knows what's happening. At St Paul's and All Hallows, recognition of the importance of lunchtime has led to a number of changes, including the introduction of two sittings. This has created the space for senior school meals supervisory assistant Diane Facey and her team to make the most of their individual skills, including providing personalised support in the dining hall.
