Job overview
We want to talk to any of you interested in working with us as a cover supervisor. It is a term time role with working hours set at 8.30am-3.30pm for 5 days per week with 30 minutes for lunch.
Your role will involve teaching a range of lessons for different subjects, but if you have a subject specialism, we are happy to support you in developing close ties with specific departments in order to make the most of your skills.
As a cover supervisor at Stratford School Academy you will not only be part of a core team of 4 cover supervisors, but you will also be fully involved in the life of the school. You will attend staff meetings, teacher training sessions and support during break and lunchtimes when necessary. The school is fully committed to ensuing our pupils receive the best quality lessons whether their normal classroom teacher is there or not. We therefore provide support for cover supervisors to ensure they have the same opportunities to improve their classroom practice as our classroom teachers do.
Stratford School Academy has been rebuilt and redeveloped through the Priority Schools Building Programme recently. We now have two new buildings, each for 750 students situated on separate sites but close to one another. The two sites operate as parallel ‘mini schools’ educating students from Year 7 to 11.
We try to look after our staff. We provide travel loans and have cycle to work, parking permit and childcare voucher schemes. All staff get priority admission to the school for their children. Our school dinners are well worth eating and you get free tea or coffee all day made by a qualified barista. Last but not least, you get to work with very nice people and pupils.
Stratford School Academy is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All appointments are subject to successful completion of Safer Recruitment checks, including an Enhanced DBS.
If you have any queries, please email HR@stratfordschoolacademy.org with your details.

Closing Date: 12 noon on Tuesday 12 July 2022
We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role. Therefore, if you are interested, please submit your application as early as possible.

Vision
We are a mixed, all ability, and non-faith school. Our focus is our local community but our outlook is global. We affirm what we have in common just as much as we celebrate what makes us different.
We believe that education is an intrinsic good that should be enjoyed by all. As educators we will play our part in forming citizens who have a moral compass and understand and accept their responsibility for the well being of others.
At the same time, as a publicly funded educational institution, we have a responsibility to create public value and to succeed to the best of our abilities against those measures by which we are held accountable. We accept this responsibility
School is an important step on the road to learning but it is not the only one.
There are some things that we must all learn now and much else that we will need to learn in the future. We all learn from our families, our communities, our employers and our peers. To this end we must teach our students not just what they need to know now but also to become independent learners who understand how to learn – people who, when they leave us, can travel the road to education by themselves.
We know that people learn in different ways but that for all of us learning is a social process. We will use new technologies to accommodate this reality. We will create a culture at Stratford School founded on finding answers to two questions: What do we currently know about how we all learn and how can we implement our understanding within our school? And: What isn't working and how can we make it better?
We will do everything we can with the resources at our disposal to provide each pupil in our school with a personal education that is enjoyable, that leads to appropriate qualifications and that lays the foundation for further learning.
The world in which we live is changing fast, education is no different. We must therefore create open and flexible structures, both human and physical, that can quickly respond to change.
But we must not lose sight of the students at the heart of our school; we must see the education of each and every one of them in the round and ensure it is conducted in a human scale environment.
No student should be anonymous at Stratford School Academy.
