We are currently open to receiving applications for the position of Cover Supervisor, with a planned start date in February 2024. This role is particularly well-suited for an individual who is highly organised, adaptable, and resilient, capable of swiftly adjusting to diverse situations. The successful candidate should possess the ability to both challenge and support learners of various ages across a spectrum of subject areas.

This opportunity is ideal for recent graduates looking to gain valuable experience in a school environment before pursuing formal teacher training. It is also well-suited for individuals with a genuine passion for facilitating the unlocking of our students' potential.

Key responsibilities include playing a crucial role in ensuring continuous learning and positive progress for students in the absence of their regular teacher. Key qualifications and attributes for this role include:

* A solid understanding of the school curriculum, age-related expectations of learners, teaching methodologies, and testing/assessment procedures.
* GCSE qualifications in Maths and English at a minimum grade of C (or equivalent).
* Innate ability to build robust relationships with both staff and students, coupled with a dedicated commitment to our academy and its vision.

If you meet these criteria and are enthusiastic about contributing to the educational journey of our students, we encourage you to submit your application. Your role as a Cover Supervisor will be integral to maintaining a positive learning environment during teachers' absences, fostering continuous progress and development.

Bexleyheath Academy is proud to be a non-selective school in the grammar heartland of Kent. Bexleyheath Academy is quickly approaching capacity with students; in order to accommodate the demands of the local community and grow our skilled staff, we must expand.

Joining a flourishing school at this time is an amazing opportunity!

With immediate train access to Central London and easy access to the Kent countryside, Bexleyheath has the best of both worlds. Despite having a Kent postcode, Bexleyheath is classified as Greater London due to its strategic location between Welling, Sidcup, and Bexley village. You can reach Dartford for the river crossing with a short drive along the A2.

Its thriving hub is The Broadway - a shopping district with added appeal in the shape of a bowling alley, cinema and a growing number of restaurants. A little beyond Bexleyheath and you're at Bluewater, Ashford for the designer outlet and international rail travel to Europe.

When inspectors visited Bexleyheath Academy in July 2021, they said that the way in which pupils work in school has been "transformed", and that "there is a positive atmosphere in classes and around the school". Inspectors also said that the school "has completely changed" and have confirmed in their report that Bexleyheath Academy is officially a good school.

Should you wish to visit us in person then our doors are open to you at any time on any day. Please contact the Principal

The role is due to commence February 2024
