What skills and experience we're looking for
We are seeking a Cover Supervisor to join a well-led and motivated team committed to continuous improvement.
In this role, you will supervise classes during the short-term absence of the class teacher, implement work programmes, manage pupil behaviour and assist pupils in relevant activities.
You will work under the guidance of teaching and senior staff to secure good outcomes for all students.

This is an ideal opportunity for a colleague who is ambitious, creative and enthusiastic about helping students to learn in a strong, supportive environment.
