What the school offers its staff
Thank you for showing an interest in the Cover Coach post at Bosworth Academy. At Bosworth Academy, our aim is to ensure all students continue their journey into adulthood as confident, capable and successful people who can take control of, and enjoy, their future lives. ‘Be better than you thought you could be‘ We encourage and work with students so they can concentrate on learning in a co-operative environment, valuing everyone‘s positive contribution and promoting a strong sense of community and responsibility towards others. Every student is important to us, and everyone should experience a first class education, with high challenges and equally high expectations. Every child has the potential to develop and to achieve highly. It is our role as teaching professionals to foster within them a deep passion for learning. We aim to instil in our students the notion of a growth mind-set; the belief that they can get better at anything through hard work, high challenge, determination and practice. We work hard to provide the best teaching, clear guidance, and effective support, recognising the individual learning needs of each student, and personalising their experience accordingly. Our driving passion is a belief that ‘no student at Bosworth Academy will underachieve’. It is our responsibility to raise students’ aspirations and continually drive home the message that you can ‘be better than you thought you could be’. We offer an exciting, ambitious and seamless pathway through Key Stage 3 and 4, to our Sixth Form, and onwards to university, apprenticeships and beyond. We are excited by the prospect of being one of only a select few institutions able to offer this in Leicestershire. We invest in our staff to develop their potential capital. Through purposeful collaboration and coaching we aim to support all of our team to excel. Investors in People recognised this – rating us as a ‘Gold’ provider. This post offers and exciting opportunity to help us on our journey towards excellence in every area. We want the best possible future for all of our students, so we know it is important to invest in them now.
