Are you passionate about the education of young people and looking for a varied job where no two days are the same?
New Rickstones Academy is graded 'Good' (November 2023) and has a modern building offering fantastic facilities for both students and staff. Over the last 9 years the school has seen a huge increase in student numbers, with the number of students on roll more than doubling. The school is now oversubscribed and our newest building, which opened September 2022, was to meet this demand. New Rickstones Academy is a great place to work with a friendly and supportive staff team. Staff numbers have also increased and the school is proud to boast high staff retention rates. Staff development is a priority with an extensive and hugely successful CPD (Continuing Professional Development) program to further develop our excellent staff.
We are looking for a casual Associate Teacher/Cover Supervisor to join our growing Cover Team. You will provide cover for classes in the event of absence of teaching staff in all areas of the curriculum, following lesson plans provided and maintaining order and focused activity. You must have GCSE Maths & English Grade C/Level 4 and Level 3 or above qualification. You will have excellent communication and interpersonal skills and be able to motivate our learners. You will be able to adapt quickly to changing situations and 'think on your feet'.
This position is on a casual, as required basis, throughout the academic year. Working hours are 08.30am - 3.15pm and working days are flexible. Full training will be provided for the successful candidate. If you are a graduate or studying for a degree it presents an exciting opportunity as you will gain experience to potentially develop a career within teaching - a number of our support staff have progressed to our teacher training programme and then into teaching and leadership positions.
If this advert, our website, and the job description sound of interest to you, Hannah Gracie our Assistant Headteacher, welcomes you to contact her for an informal discussion about the position at
