What skills and experience we're looking for

We are seeking to recruit a talented and skilled cover supervisor who is able, with support, to deliver lessons to whole classes (on average 6 students) in the short term absence of their teacher. Someone who can build positive relationships with students to help guide their personal development and who can give clear, useful feedback to the teaching team after lessons so that the curriculum can be uninterrupted

As cover supervisor you will be:

  • highly motivated, with a passion for education

  • have bags of enthusiasm, patience and perseverance

  • Be prepared to travel across our sites as needs demand. You will be based in either Oxford or Banbury and when not required to cover will be part of our student support team on that base.

What the school offers its staff

Why work at Meadowbrook College?

  • Meadowbrook College staff are both professional and resilient. There is a “can do” attitude that makes a real difference to the lives of our students; many of whom have become disengaged with education and lost the confidence to achieve their full potential

  • We offer a variety of opportunities for ongoing professional development for all staff

  • We are working in an ever-changing and expanding educational climate where the need for alternative provision solutions is increasing. Our provision is always adapting and new opportunities are always evolving.

Commitment to safeguarding

Meadowbrook College is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All staff and volunteers are also expected to promote fundamental British values.

The possession of a criminal record will not necessarily prevent an applicant from obtaining this post. All cases are considered confidentially and according to the nature of the role and information disclosed. On-line searches are carried out on those shortlisted
