From my short experience as new staff member at Oxford BON, I was interviewed, warmly welcomed and quickly integrated by the wonderful Manager Kirran last October but as I got suddenly unwell and very much in pain as the end of my weekly shift on my second week, I had to be rushed to A&E on the following Monday evening for multiple tests requested by my doctor and got diagnosed with large kidney stones. By which time Kirran went on annual leave and the UK Business Director, Lorraine Michelle Wheatley, returned from hers the following day. After an overnight and a day in hospital with the unexpected prospect to spend a possible second night there, I requested to call my employer, from the ward where I had no signal nor possible connection with my own mobile.
Needless to say that I had another shock when I spoke to the Director, my very first encounter ever with her, when I informed her that I was kept in hospital and was not able to cover my shift that day. She straight away told me angrily that I was messing up her plans and schedule and never once asked how I was or anything about what was happening to me. Her only worry was for me to return the security keys that same evening or early morning the next day. Secondly I discovered early November that my salary had been cut down to half the hours I had worked.
If this is the way they deal with their staff in this early years establishment, then what corners are being cut or what other unsavory practice could the Director be taking with little ones, Early Years residents at this Oxfordshire Nursery school on a daily basis, overworking and disrespecting the staff in place.
I've already informed ACAS and am raising concerns at their head office in Dubai as well as with the local authority, since I am not getting any reply to my request of fair payment and treatment.
If you are a parent of a child attending this Nursery School, please enquire further about how well staff is actually treated there.
