We are seeking to appoint a high achieving English specialist to work in our English department as an Academic Mentor for the 2023/24 academic year, at all key stages (KS3-KS4).

As an Academic Mentor you will be supporting pupils either individually or in small groups.

You will work closely with the class teacher and Head of Department to take responsibility for intervention programmes, having your own small groups of students outside of the classroom.

You will be monitoring the progress of pupils and relaying this information back to the class teacher/Head of Department.

The class teacher will expect you to assist with devising lesson plans which meet the requirements of the curriculum whilst addressing the individual needs of all pupils.

Hall Green School is a very popular, heavily oversubscribed and academically successful 11 to 16 Converter Academy.

We are a highly diverse institution, both ethnically and as a fully accessible mainstream school, attracting pupils from across the city with physical disabilities.

We have wonderful pupils who fully contribute to the school's 'caring, nurturing and inclusive culture' described by Ofsted as 'a welcoming and inclusive school' where 'pupils are happy, and they achieve well' and the 'positive relationships between pupils and staff are a hallmark of the school'.

During your working weeks you will work full-time, i.e. 36.5 hours per week.

Your normal working day will be 8.15 am to 4.05 pm, Monday to Friday, with a half hour unpaid lunch break each day.

This post is covered by Part 7 of the Immigration Act and therefore the ability to speak fluent and spoken English is an essential requirement for this role.
