Cover Supervisors at Primet work as a team to deliver lessons within the study room, with potentially up to 5 classes within this space when needed. This enables students to receive a consistent and high quality learning experience when their normal class teachers are not available. Students are used to this established routine, and understand the systems and expectations of the room, ensuring they are able to get the most out of these lessons and complete as much learning as possible within the hours lesson. The cover supervisors coordinate and feedback on the work completed being returned to the correct teachers, so this can then be followed up in their next lesson. Some lessons will still be covered as individual classes within classrooms, this is mainly where specialist resources are needed such as for computing lessons.
