We are looking to recruit a talented, committed and inspiring Sixth Form Study Supervisor. Ark Academy Sixth form opened to its first cohort of pupils in 2016 and has grown into a highly successful and competitive Key Stage 5 provider. The Sixth Form serves as the pinnacle of education for pupils in the lower school while attracting the best and brightest from other schools in the local area. The Sixth Form has built a solid foundation of achievement in ensuring our pupils achieve outstanding results and make excellent progress when compared to their peers nationally. We are committed to ensuring every child is challenged to achieve their maximum potential and have celebrated wonderful successes in seeing our pupils progress to study at the most competitive universities, both Oxbridge and Russel Group and onto the most competitive degree level apprenticeships. If you are looking to make your mark this is the perfect opportunity for you.
Our Sixth form has 260 students and has an impressive record in providing all students with the highest quality of teaching and experience in Advanced Level subjects. We have had excellent results with 60% of grades at A*-B in 2018 making Ark one of the best achieving schools in the ARK network and across the country.
Working with a dedicated and motivated Senior Leadership Team, the Sixth Form Study Supervisor will provide effective supervision for our Sixth Form Students, particularly Year 12. We want all our students to be role models for the younger pupils and support them in developing their independent study skills.
We are very proud of our reputation for academic excellence and a superb pastoral care our students receive along with the support we provide for the less academically able. We now want your help to enable us to go beyond outstanding and achieve ‘excellence for all’.
