St Mary's School is a very special place to work, a place where staff are valued and supported. St Mary’s provides education of the highest quality for every pupil. This is an ideal opportunity to work with highly motivated students and inspiring and supportive colleagues in the pursuit of excellence. We offer relatively small class sizes and a strong community ethos. We encourage our staff to achieve their ambitions, as we enable our students to achieve theirs.   

We are looking for someone to complement teachers’ delivery of the curriculum and contribute to the development of other support staff, pupils and school policies and strategies.  You will work collaboratively with teaching staff and assist teachers in the whole planning cycle and the management/preparation of resources.  

You may be required to supervise whole classes occasionally during the short-term absence of teachers, as well as provide support for pupils, the teacher and the school in order to raise standards of achievement for all pupils by utilising advanced levels of knowledge and skills when assisting with planning, monitoring assessing and managing classes. In addition, you will encourage pupils to become independent learners, provide support for their welfare and support the inclusion of pupils in all aspects of school life.

St Mary’s is ideally placed for access to the M25 and M40, as well as mainline train services to London.
