What skills and experience we're looking for

We are characterised by how we treat our people

“Pupils enjoy attending this thriving and popular school. They feel a strong sense of belonging to the school community. Pupils achieve well and almost all successfully move on to apprenticeships, A levels or other forms of education, employment or training. Staff have high expectations of behaviour and know pupils very well.” Ofsted April 2023

This is an outstanding opportunity for a suitably experienced individual to join a successful and welcoming school. We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic, flexible and proactive person to supervise whole classes for short-term teacher absence and general classroom support. We are looking for someone who can support learning and motivate & engage students.

A high level of education, including A* - C (or equivalent) in GCSE English and Maths, along with relevant experience or an appropriate, recognised qualification such as NVQ Level 3 is essential.
