St James Academy is looking to appoint an exceptional individual to supervise learners who are temporarily not working to a normal timetable. With excellent interpersonal and communication skills you will establish productive working relationships with learners, setting high expectations in line with the Trust agreed policies specifically in relation to behaviour for learning.
The role includes supporting the learners in accessing of a programme of study provided by teaching staff, ensuring good conduct and keeping the learners on task.
St James is situated in the centre of Dudley and is housed in the buildings of what was Dudley Grammar School for Boys, to which many modern blocks have been added. Since the creation of the Trust, extensive electrical, heating and roofing works have taken place. Facilities are good and well resourced, with all learners in years 7 and 8 having their own laptops.
At St James Academy, we are determined to become a centre of excellence for young people who live in central Dudley. We have already achieved some impressive results.
Over the last five years, the grades that learners achieve have improved significantly, and the proportion of learners achieving Grade 5 or higher in both English and Mathematics has doubled. An increasing number of departments have achieved 100% GCSE Grade 5 pass rates. The academy has a strong track record of success in the arts subjects.
Students are challenged to extend their interests through a wide programme of extra-curricular activities, sports teams and enrichment activities.
Our philosophy is simple: we will ensure the success of our learners through outstanding teaching, positive behaviour and embracing the talents of each individual.
