Job description

Student Supervisor — High School (Grades 9 to 12)

Ignite School, Al Warqa'a 3, Dubai, UAE

Reporting to:

Dean of Students, High School

About the role

Ignite School is seeking a Student Supervisor for the High School to support the safety, conduct and wellbeing of students in Grades 9 to 12. This is an active, on-the-floor role. The successful candidate will spend the school day among students rather than at a desk, working alongside the Dean of Students, teachers and school life leaders to maintain a calm, orderly and purposeful environment across the High School.

Working with older students calls for a different approach to that used in the lower phases. The role suits someone who can hold clear expectations firmly while building the kind of respectful working relationships that adolescents respond to.

• Report safeguarding concerns immediately in line with the school's Child Protection and Safeguarding Policy
• Maintain accurate records of incidents, referrals and follow-up actions
• Refer wellbeing, academic or pastoral concerns to the Dean of Students, Student Counselor or Guidance Counselor as appropriate
• Work in coordination with teachers, Hallway Monitors and school life leaders to maintain clear, non-duplicated lines of responsibility
