Come to work in a thriving community. The Gosforth Group is a multi-academy trust currently consisting of six schools (Gosforth Academy, Gosforth Junior High Academy, North Gosforth Academy, Jesmond Park Academy, Great Park Academy and Callerton Academy. 

You will be required to supervise classes during the absence of the class teacher and will be expected to work with and supervise small groups of students under the guidance of senior staff to help them catch up with missed work or prepare for external exams. This will include supporting the work of the subject team, implementing work programmes, managing student behaviour and assisting students in relevant activities in line with the school’s policies and procedures.
