We are a truly unique, small, rural 11-16 academy in the beautiful setting of North-West Worcestershire.  Our pupils are happy, well behaved and proud of their school.  The academy has a strong vein of moral purpose where the child is at the heart of all we do. We invest in our pupils and our staff to ensure all are supported to be the best they can be.  We are on a fast – paced improvement journey where we are seeing impact of our improvement strategy in terms of behaviour, attendance and outcomes. This is an exciting time to join our school and be a part of this journey.

We are currently looking to appoint a Cover Supervisor to start in September. This is a vital role to the operation of school life, delivering pre-prepared lessons for short term planned and emergency teacher absence to ensure consistency in learning for pupils across the year groups.  

As our Cover Supervisor, you will be someone who sees the best in children, can motivate them and have the ability to build supportive, respectful relationships with young people. The role also requires you to be able to work under pressure, think on your feet and adapt quickly.
