Batley Multi Academy Trust’s sole purpose is to provide a great education for Primary and Secondary learners throughout a local family of schools. The Trust is passionately committed to the communities of Batley, Birstall, Dewsbury and our surrounding areas, serving our local learners and their families in order to secure excellent educational outcomes, partnered with high aspirations. Batley Multi Academy Trust currently comprises Batley Girls’ High School; Batley Grammar School; Field Lane Junior, Infant and Nursery School; Healey Junior, Infant and Nursery School; Hyrstmount Junior School; Manorfield Infant and Nursery School; Purlwell Infant and Nursery School and Upper Batley High School. We provide high quality education for all our young people regardless of their background or starting point. Collaboration across our Trust family of schools enables us to share expertise, knowledge and best practice to ensure academic and pastoral excellence, with all schools embracing the same overall ethos and values, whilst maintaining their own unique characters.

Batley Girls’ High School is an 11-19 school dedicated to providing an environment that enables all members of our school community to thrive. “This warm, welcoming school is wholeheartedly focused on its pupils. Pupils settle in quickly when they arrive. They understand that staff care for them and want them to succeed. They go on to do well in the subjects they study and appreciate the help they get to achieve.” (OFSTED 2025). Centrally to this is commitment to invest in all colleagues to help them flourish and support our learners. “Staff enjoy working together as a team. They receive timely professional development in line with the school’s improvement priorities. It aids teachers in developing their subject and pedagogical understanding well.”

We are looking for a Cover Supervisor to be involved mainly in the supervision of classes and to oversee the completion of work by learners in the absence of the nominated teacher. The successful candidate will have experience of working with young people in a school environment, with proven success in using teaching resources and supporting learners. 

Educated to A-level standard or equivalent, the successful applicant will have good organisation and communication skills and can work well in a team. The role will involve providing support and guidance to individuals, individual groups or on a whole class basis through curriculum activities. The post will be based at Batley Girls’ High School, however the successful candidate may be asked to work across the Batley Multi Academy Trust family of schools.
