Lunchtime Supervisor Training for School Dining Halls

Jenny works passionately to promote calm school dining hall. Furthermore this is done through Lunchtime Supervisor Training, helping supervisors introduce dining hall rules, efficient dining hall systems and many practical, common sense ideas. Luckily these can all be implemented almost immediately. Using simple, tried and tested approaches, Jenny’s Lunchtime Supervisor Training works to empower practitioners. It therefore helps adults communicate better with children, promoting positive behaviour. Consequently, the dining hall is calmer with reduced noise and queues. In this way, lunchtimes flow much better in school and lunchtimes become healthier for children.

So, you may like to see our dining hall articles in Headteacher Update, the TES and Education Today (p.19). You can also read a lunchtimes training blog about dining hall systems that really work or an alternative blog about a booking for training that covered 9 different schools and a week-long project.

“I just wanted to drop you a note to say that we have been running your Golden ticket / table idea for the last two weeks, following on from the training you gave in Peterborough a few weeks ago. It has made a huge difference to the noise levels in the dinner hall and the children are loving trying to win a ticket, by being the first to notice me with my hand up for quiet, helping to tidy away and playing new games with different groups of children. Many Thanks for the fantastic course.” Claire Belson – Senior Midday Supervisor Northborough Primary School 2016

Lunchtime supervisors help to keep playtimes calm, fun and interesting! With Jenny Mosley’s Lunchtime Supervisor Training, staff are empowered to encourage and inspire children. They then play more new and traditional playground games and activities. Some of Jenny’s resources are on useful cards so that children can use them themselves. It doesn’t take long for everyone to become more active and engaged in the playground. Children themselves make great teacher! Consequently they can teach other children the games that they have learnt.

Our rewards and sanctions notelets pads can be kept in a pocket and used to reinforce the Playground Golden Rules. So notelets are filled in and given to the child. Lunchtime supervisors can also carry small certificate pads – used to reward children who are following all the rules.

Why Can Playtimes Be Tricky?

Some children really struggle with playtimes. Without the physical boundaries – like walls, tables and chairs, and without classroom social boundaries they can become lost.

So we understand that the happiness and productivity of many classrooms and playgrounds is dependent upon the energy of lunchtime supervisors. Also their enthusiasm and skill levels play a big part. It appears that very often their skills left to develop through practical experience only. We believe that pupils benefit greatly when Lunchtime Supervisor Training and training for Teaching Assistants is promoted. Teaching Assistants also benefit from working alongside teachers and alongside Jenny Mosley in circle times, co-running circles of support for troubled pupils, helping to bring out creativity within pupils and raising self-esteem of the whole class. Lunchtime supervisors can hone their skills through training of running successful, calm and productive lunchtimes and playtimes through lunchtimes training courses.

Lunchtime staff have such an important role to play in the smooth running of a school. They help determine whether a school is happy or not and can have a profound effect on individual children’s lives. All of Jenny Mosley’s Lunchtimes Supervisor Training provides helpful advice and empowerment for staff. And Jenny’s style is accessible and brimming with great ideas to help create calm and happy lunchtimes.

How Can We Help with Playtimes?

Do either come to us with your own ideas for training for Midday Supervisors and TAs – and we will propose a programme to help your school flourish. Alternatively we can design a programme which will suit supervisors, teachers and teaching assistants.

Most important of all, all our training courses feature Jenny Mosley’s Golden Model – and each course is tailor-made to each request. When you contact Jenny Mosley’s offices, you will have your own dedicated training administrator. Consequentoy, we can help to tailor the day to meet the needs of your school community.
