Thank you for your interest in working at our school. 

We require a flexible, enthusiastic and dedicated individual to supervise whole classes of students, and ensure that the work that has been set is completed in the absence of a teacher.  Cover is provided for the short-term absence of teaching staff so that an effective and tailored school policy to cover is delivered.  The position offers someone with good communication and interpersonal skills a fantastic opportunity to join an ambitious and forward thinking school. 

If you are considering teaching as a career, this is an excellent opportunity to provide you with invaluable experience.  

We exist to empower our students to find their purpose, develop high aspirations and thrive both academically and personally, to be the best that they can be. We provide a knowledge-rich curriculum which exposes students to powerful knowledge, places them on an ambitious pathway and develops the character traits needed to seize the opportunities that exist. Our core purpose is not merely finite ‘success’ for our students but for them to thrive - continually grow and flourish.

We are explicit about the culture we want to create and have clear ideas of the desired behaviours necessary for our students to succeed. At Glossopdale School, we maintain a relentless focus on the day-to-day actions, behaviours and routines within the school and adopt a disciplined approach to teaching students the right and successful ways to do things. 

While with us, we encourage every member of staff to stretch themselves and we give everyone access to a wide range of learning and development opportunities. We are a research-based school with the aim to develop highly effective evidence-based practices including teaching, learning and assessment, where we collaborate as a whole staff to persistently improve our pedagogy and where we evaluate our practice habitually.

We have some of the best facilities in the area having fully rebuilt our school in 2018. This not only provides both staff and students with everything they can expect for modern teaching and learning, but also gives us exceptional environmental credentials.

If you think this sounds like your sort of school, then we very much look forward to receiving your application to join us.
