Our school is a happy school, where relationships are positive, respect is prevalent and expectations are high. We challenge all members of our school community to “be kind, try your best and follow the rules” – our students are our greatest asset and never fail to inspire and impress staff and visitors. Staff have high expectations of all students, whatever their starting point; students have the drive and ambition to meet these expectations. Our GCSE results in 2024 were once again amongst the highest in Leeds, which is testament to the way that our students and staff work together to create a positive, ambitious and caring learning environment.

Governors are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic, self-motivated and inspiring cover supervisor.  We are looking for someone who is qualified to GCSE Grade C or above in English and Maths or NVQ Level 2 and ideally has experience of working with children in a classroom setting.

You will supervise students completing work that has been set by absent teachers. Other duties will be required under the direction of the Cover Manager. Duties may include examination invigilation and the provision of administrative and clerical support. This post is ideal for candidates who are considering a career in teaching or in the wider education sector or indeed anyone who has a real interest and passion for supporting young people in their learning.

If you can offer vision, drive and a commitment to supporting and developing young people within our Catholic school then we want to hear from you. We are particularly interested in candidates who share our commitment to improving the life chances of young people regardless of background.

Further details and Catholic Education Service application forms are also available from the school website (www.cardinalheenan.com).

Please note that covering letters are not required and will not be used as part of the shortlisting or selection process. There is a section of the application form where candidates may offer further information to support their application. This can take the form of a letter of no more than two sides of A4.
