We are looking for an enthusiastic, reliable and professional person to join our staff team to provide supervision and deliver pre-set work for classes in the absence of the class teacher. This is an exciting time to join a popular, high achieving and consistently oversubscribed 11-16 school.

You will need to be confident in your ability to maintain the school’s behaviour expectations in classes, and be able to deal with any challenging behaviour in a calm yet firm manner whilst maintaining a purposeful working environment for our students.

This is an ideal role for someone looking to gain experience before pursuing teaching as a career.
