We are a truly unique, small, rural 11-16 academy in the beautiful setting of North-West Worcestershire.  Our pupils are happy, well behaved and proud of their school.  The academy has a strong vein of moral purpose where the child is at the heart of all we do. We invest in our pupils and our staff to ensure all are supported to be the best they can be.  We are on a fast – paced improvement journey where we are seeing impact of our improvement strategy in terms of behaviour, attendance and outcomes. This is an exciting time to join our school and be a part of this journey.

Due to the promotion of our current postholder, we are looking to appoint a cover supervisor to start in September. This is a vital role to the operation of school life, delivering pre-prepared lessons for short term planned and emergency teacher absence to ensure consistency in learning for pupils across the five years.  

The academy requires a candidate who sees the best in children, can motivate them as well as build supportive, respectful relationships with young people. The role also requires someone who can work under pressure, think on their feet and adapt quickly. 

We would encourage all prospective candidates to visit the academy to tour and meet with other members of the staff and our pupils. In addition,  I encourage you to visit our website; take a look at our Facebook page and email the Principal’s PA – Mrs Sheppard on csheppard@tenburyhigh.co.uk - if you have any specific questions. 

I am grateful for the interest that you have shown and would urge you to apply for the post by completing and returning the application form.

Please note that the closing date is Friday 10th May and we expect to hold interviews Wednesday 15th May.

I do understand the effort required to submit an application and appreciate the time that you will take to do so.
