About this role
Work Where It Matters Most, Achieve What Matters More Be part of a team where passion meets purpose, as we work together where the challenge is greatest to change the lives and build the futures of children and young people. We are currently looking to appoint a Cover Supervisor and Pastoral Support Officer to start as soon as possible. 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 five years. In addition, when cover requirements are low, the post holder will be required to support the wider pastoral team in a range of duties - for example, on call, home visits, interventions, classroom based support, supervising our RESET room. The academy requires a candidate who is flexible, sees the best in children, can motivate them as well as build supportive, respectful relationships with young people. The role also requires someone who can work under pressure, think on their feet and adapt quickly. About the Academy 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. Why Work for Ormiston? Our vision is to create a school system where every child thrives, regardless of background. Our people are at the heart of our approach - they are our greatest asset. We exist to provide the best learning opportunities every day, in every school for every child.
