Job overview

Are you passionate about supporting students with additional needs? 

Can you make a difference to help students to fulfil their potential?

We are seeking to appoint a suitably qualified, inspiring and committed teaching assistant to support the learning of students with additional needs. We are committed to allowing students of all ages and abilities to access a broad and engaging curriculum.

The school has been rated as ‘Good’ by Ofsted, most recently in January 2023:

“Teachers adapt the curriculum and their teaching resources to meet the needs of all pupils effectively. They do this particularly well for pupils with SEND. The teaching resources are carefully designed and selected so that pupils can understand and remember more over time. Teachers routinely check pupils’ understanding. When pupils do not understand the work, teachers adapt their lessons and reteach.”

Blue Coat Church of England Academy is one of the oldest educational establishments in Walsall, is well-respected and valued by the community it serves. We operate on a very collaborative approach to school improvement working with a range of other schools and nationally recognised trainers. The school is very proud of the family ethos which pervades all aspects of its work, which is grounded in Christian values.

Values and vision

Walsall Blue Coat Academy bases its ideals upon its Christian foundation and strives to introduce Christian aspects of teaching into all that it does. 

For instance, during form time each day all students participate in a daily act of worship which includes prayer and time for reflection. Regular meetings are also held for staff and students, during which prayers are said and thoughts are focused on people in need. Certain students are also instrumental in spreading the word of Christianity through, for example, taking assemblies to junior schools.

Walsall Blue Coat Academy also has dedicated itself to striving to foster a caring attitude towards the wider global community. Indeed, each year the school raises money for a charity voted for by all students. In 2015, students raised over £4,400 for Teenage Cancer Trust.

Ofsted

“The curriculum is good and its focus on developing students’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural understanding is excellent. The academy prepares students very well for life in modern democratic Britain, and its focus on developing community cohesion is exemplary. Governors and academy sponsors provide very good support for academy leaders.”
