Would you like to work in a school that has a strong ethos of respect, responsibility and readiness to learn? Where students have a thirst for knowledge and a love of challenge?

At West Hill School, we are looking to further grow our team of Cover Supervisors in order to ensure that we offer quality-first cover in supporting staff absence. As a school, we are committed to the school ethos of 'aiming high' and delivering a curriculum experience that is ambitious and empowers both our staff and learners.

We are seeking to appoint a committed, reflective and ambitious Cover Supervisor to continue to enrich and grow the experience for our learners. We seek a passionate practitioner who can bring their personality, experience and guidance to our students. As a school, we are increasing the CPD offer to our staff, our trips and visits outside of school and our internal quality assurance and therefore are seeking an additional member to our team in order to bring consistency to our learners, in the absence that these opportunities create.

The candidate will enjoy working with young people, enjoy working as part of a team and
will receive training and support from our experienced team. Our boys are warm, respectful
and welcoming, as are our staff, and in return for working with us, we offer:

A supportive, inclusive and encouraging Senior Leadership Team

An experienced and stable staff body, committed to our community

On-going investment into your career development through appropriate CPD

Smart working practices to help support work-life balance.
