The following Support Staff post is required as soon as possible:

Scale LBR5 Point 22-25 (pro rata of £22,506 - £24,510 fte per annum, £11.87 - £12.93 per hour) 

Oaks Park High School is looking to appoint an outstanding Cover Supervisor to oversee classes as they undertake work set in the short-term absence of the class teacher. Ideally this would be for 27.5 hours a week but less hours will be considered for the right applicant.

We are keen to fill this post with an energetic, creative individual who can relate positively to young people. This is an exciting opportunity to work alongside school staff, establish your supervisory skills and to develop in the management of school classes. You will have excellent interpersonal and communication skills, coupled with a flexible and reliable approach. Experience of working with or relating to young people, and to have a commitment to their welfare, education and development is also highly desirable. 

Oaks Park High School is a very popular and oversubscribed mixed comprehensive school which is expanding the number on roll to meet the community demand.  In 2011, Ofsted awarded the school ‘Outstanding’ status.  The school prides itself on being an ambitious and supportive multi-cultural community that keeps our child-centred philosophy at the heart of everything that we do.  Oaks Park is highly regarded for its high standards of pupil behaviour and orderly, purposeful learning environment and the results achieved this summer reflect this both at GCSE and A Level. 

The school is centrally located in the London Borough of Redbridge, with very good transport links to central and outer London, with Newbury Park station only a four minute walk away.

The successful applicant will also have access to benefits including:
