Cover Supervisor job summary
Thank you for your interest in working at our school.
We require a flexible, enthusiastic and dedicated individual to supervise whole classes of students, and ensure that the work that has been set is completed in the absence of a teacher. Cover is provided for the short-term absence of teaching staff so that an effective and tailored school policy to cover is delivered. The position offers someone with good communication and interpersonal skills a fantastic opportunity to join an ambitious and forward thinking school.
If you are considering teaching as a career, this is an excellent opportunity to provide you with invaluable experience.
We exist to empower our students to find their purpose, develop high aspirations and thrive both academically and personally, to be the best that they can be. We provide a knowledge-rich curriculum which exposes students to powerful knowledge, places them on an ambitious pathway and develops the character traits needed to seize the opportunities that exist. Our core purpose is not merely finite ‘success’ for our students but for them to thrive - continually grow and flourish.
We are explicit about the culture we want to create and have clear ideas of the desired behaviours necessary for our students to succeed. At Glossopdale School, we maintain a relentless focus on the day-to-day actions, behaviours and routines within the school and adopt a disciplined approach to teaching students the right and successful ways to do things.
While with us, we encourage every member of staff to stretch themselves and we give everyone access to a wide range of learning and development opportunities. We are a research-based school with the aim to develop highly effective evidence-based practices including teaching, learning and assessment, where we collaborate as a whole staff to persistently improve our pedagogy and where we evaluate our practice habitually.
We have some of the best facilities in the area having fully rebuilt our school in 2018. This not only provides both staff and students with everything they can expect for modern teaching and learning, but also gives us exceptional environmental credentials.
If you think this sounds like your sort of school, then we very much look forward to receiving your application to join us.

Our School is a warm and caring community for all of our 1,200 students, from when they join us in Year 7 to when they leave us in Year 13. We are a school that has the highest expectations of students and ourselves, where every student is expected to work hard, behave well and contribute positively to the school community.
Our core purpose is to support students of all abilities and backgrounds to develop high aspirations and achieve their potential. We do this by nurturing and building ambition for our students, we open opportunities, broaden horizons and introduce challenges ensuring everyone can thrive, both academically and personally, to be the best that they can be.
While with us, we encourage every member of staff to stretch themselves and we give everyone access to a wide range of learning and development opportunities. We have just started our journey to become a research based school with the aim to develop highly effective, evidence-based teaching, learning and assessment, where we collaborate as a whole staff to persistently improve our pedagogy and where we evaluate our practice habitually.
Everyone also has the ability to get involved with school life beyond their core role – whether that’s supporting one of the many extra-curricular activities and clubs, or becoming part of the student support structure we have in place for each year group. There’s always some way you can push yourself towards your own goals while inspiring and supporting our students.
We have some of the best facilities in the area having fully re-built our school in 2018. This not only provides both staff and students with everything they can expect for modern teaching and learning, but also gives us exceptional environmental credentials.
Just like our students, we welcome people to join our school from a diverse range of backgrounds. We welcome interest from enthusiastic, dedicated and hardworking individuals who wish to share in our and, more importantly, our students’ success.
