About our School

Do you have these core traits to be a successful Change Maker and Classroom Cover Supervisor at Bader

Academy?

Bader Academy is a special school which opened in September 2020, and which provides 100 places

for children and young people, aged 5-16, who have an Education, Health and Care Plan with a

primary diagnosis of Communication and Interaction Difficulties.

We are seeking to appoint a classroom cover supervisor to support our students to “be kind, be safe, be ready”.

Our ambition and yours will be that Bader is a centre of excellence for both the specialist provision

and for promoting the latest inclusive practices across education.

Our children and young people at Bader deserve an education that will change their lives and give

them the opportunity to fulfil their potential. Staff employed in our Academy Trust enjoy a fulfilling

career and we focus on releasing your potential and maximising your impact.

About the Trust

This is an exciting opportunity to join an award winning Multi Academy Trust and be part of a welcoming and supportive team that serves amazing children and young people. Nexus Multi Academy Trust was founded in 2016, with 17 unique SEND and mainstream academies.

We are a growing, forward thinking and innovative Trust with a shared ethos, vision and values for a personalised child centred approach. We are committed and invested in “Learning together, to be the best we can be” and it is as relatable to every employee and partner of our Trust as it is to our children, young adults and their families.

Please see a copy of our most recent prospectus, for further information.

Our Opportunity

We are looking to recruit an enthusiastic, dynamic individual to join our school from September 2025

to join our successful staff team. We are looking for practitioners who have an innovative approach

to their work and aren’t afraid to think of new and interesting approaches to the support they offer.

Empathetic and passionate, you’ll understand that our pupils’ journeys aren’t necessarily linear. If you

haven’t worked in SEN before, but are enthusiastic and motivated to make the move, we’ll give you

all the additional training and support you require.

The role will be supporting school-wide, Year 1 to Year 11. You will be supporting learners within

their classroom environment as well as their personal and social development during socialising

periods through break and lunch times. The role may also involve supporting pupils who are

accessing an alternate provision away from the school environment.
