Cover Supervisor (Maternity Cover) job summary
The key function of the role will be to deliver pre-planned work in the classroom for absent colleagues, ensuring that students are engaged in pre-set work, managing student behaviour and ensuring a safe and stimulating learning environment.
Additional responsibilities will also be agreed to allow the successful applicants to support the pastoral team at times when they are not required for cover. This will allow opportunity to develop a broad skillset and gain the satisfaction of working closely with individual students to help them overcome barriers to learning.
The main quality we will be looking for is strong behaviour management. Being organised, punctual, prepared for any situation and having a presence in the classroom are also vital. This, combined with experience of working with children and a commitment to making a difference is essential for the position of Cover Supervisor.
Our school motto is Aspire, Succeed, Lead. We are a hugely successful school, with a strong set of GCSE results. But our mission is to achieve much more than that, so that our students leave as future leaders - equipped to perform on national and international platforms in whatever career they choose in the future.
The school’s culture is firmly rooted in values, and these shapes the way that we do things on a day-to-day basis. We recognise our accountability to our children and the impact we make on their futures; we are self-confident in what we do; and we are prepared to persevere in our determination to succeed. We are an organisation that truly cares about what we do and how we do it, and our actions are very much based on integrity, mutual respect, and empathy.
If you are interested in joining our team and being part of our exciting future, we look forward to hearing from you.
The post will be to cover the Maternity leave of the incumbent member of staff. There will be no right to continuous employment upon the return of the incumbent.
