The posting

Reading Mentor - Astrea Academy Netherwood

Do you want to be part of a team where you will help make a lasting impact on our scholars, many of whom are disadvantaged, and rapidly accelerate their progress?

Do you want to work in a school where you are free to teach, with impeccable student behaviour and unhindered by bureaucracy?

Astrea Academy Netherwood is an 11-16 academy which opened in September 2012, set in an extensive £35 million campus. As part of Astrea Academy Trust, Astrea Academy Netherwood is in an exciting period of development.

We are looking for a Reading Mentor with high aspirations and expectations for themselves and our scholars, and with a passion for bringing about positive change throughout the academy. The ideal candidate will be hardworking, focussed on improvement and have an unconditional positive regard for all young people.

The Reading Mentor is required to support in shaping the education of our scholars, making every day count and providing high quality and memorable learning for everyone.

You will work alongside an exceptional and supportive team of professionals, both teachers and wider support staff who strive to deliver outstanding learning and develop individuals who become confident, lifelong learners with aspirations for their futures.

We are values-driven and our vision is to provide an inclusive, aspirational and academic education for all our scholars, so that all of them will learn, thrive and lead successful lives. We are unapologetically ambitious for every child, no matter what their background, prior attainment or needs. We want to ensure that all our scholars have the option to be able to go to university or aspirational alternative. We are not going to reduce expectations because of a child’s background or home life, or because they are new to English or have a special education need. In fact, the opposite is true. It is our job to redouble our efforts to help children overcome these barriers so that they can flourish.

We value our staff highly and treat workload very seriously. Our systems are high leverage, ensuring you can really focus on your core purpose.

What we offer:

Support and progression opportunities

Excellent support from the Astrea Trust Central team

Highly visible/supportive senior leaders who have your back

Excellent ongoing CPD, career development and promotion opportunities across the Astrea South Yorkshire region

Opportunity to complete further qualifications

An unrivalled professional progression model

What we are looking for:

The successful candidate will be:

Aligned to our values and mission. If you are the type of person who fits with our culture, you will love working here

Someone who passionately believes that all children can achieve, no matter what their starting point, background or needs.

Interested in applying?

If this is something you are interested in, looking for a new challenge, have a passion for education or maybe all of the above, take a look at the Applicant Brief to find out more about the role and how to apply.

We actively welcome visits and would be delighted to show you around our academy to appreciate fully our excellent learning environment (details in the applicant brief).

The closing date for all applications is midnight on 11th October 2026.

Astrea Academy Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All posts are subject to satisfactory background checks including references and enhanced DBS checks.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
