What skills and experience we're looking for
Starting as soon as possible, we are looking to appoint a highly motivated, organised and confident person to join our team as a Cover Supervisor who can oversee classes when teachers are absent, ensuring that learning in the classroom is maximised.

If you have excellent communication skills, a resilient personality and can confidently liaise with teachers, other members of staff and parents where required, we would love to hear from you.
Hours Monday to Friday 08.30 -15.20. There may be some level of flexibility within the days worked for the right candidate. Salary CVCC D point 12 £20,032 for 1175.37 hours per annum as advertised.
