Our students are amazing. They are clever, kind and a joy to work with. They inspire, challenge and drive us as professionals to deliver the highest standards of education and care; to fill their school life with academic rigour, compassion and laughter. School is a busy and varied place of work, but as a team, we work together to reach out, find solutions and truly make a difference in the lives of young people.
We are seeking exceptional individuals to join our team on a permanent basis as a Cover Supervisor, taking on this highly rewarding and valued role within our school community.

Experience of individual work or group work with children, young people and families
An understanding of child and family dynamics and child development
Knowledge of national curriculum and other learning programmes
A flexible and engaging approach, inspiring students to achieve their very best
Ability to manage safely classroom activities and the physical learning space
Why you should join St Gregory’s:
We passionately believe that every child can discover their own remarkable place in the world and the contribution that you bring to our school deserves its own rewards. As a member of our team, you can expect:
To join a supportive and friendly team
A supportive employer that will work with you to meet your working needs
