We are extremely proud of our school. It is a special place to learn and work and, at Cams Hill, it is definitely the people that make the place: pupils, staff; parents and carers. All staff are part of a culture of trust, autonomy, parity, respect and are regularly recognised for their contributions. All staff complete annual performance management reviews with the opportunity to receive progression through the pay scale and the potential to receive remuneration for exceptional performance.

  • Free parking for all staff

  • Annual Flu Jabs offered via the onsite welfare team, free

For teaching staff we are able to offer the following:

  • Average class size of 23.7 so teachers have greater ability to build relationships with smaller classes
  • An evidence informed approach to assessment, marking and feedback which supports pupil learning and manageable workload for teachers
  • A programme of Continued Professional Learning designed to develop teachers at every stage of their career
  • Performance management targets which are not based on pupil performance data

Cams Hill School are looking to recruit Cover Supervisors from September 2023 to join an enthusiastic, committed team of cover staff who work closely with teachers to provide continuity to pupil’s learning during teacher absences. A cover supervisor stands in during absences of a teacher to deliver planned lessons to whole classes, ensuring all pupils can achieve their full potential.

This post would also suit a recently qualified teacher yet to take up a teaching position, or someone wishing to embark on teacher training in the future.

Are you:
• experienced in working with young people?
• passionate about the education of young people?
• eager to take on a role which requires you to be a flexible and resilient team player?
