Cover Supervisor job summary

St Thomas More Catholic Secondary School is a successful, 11-18 secondary school in Bedford. In October 2023 the school was judged by OFSTED as GOOD in all areas, capturing some of what makes our school such a great place to work stating that we have a close-knit community with a strong ‘family’ ethos. Pupils appreciate and embody the school’s Catholic values of faith, hope and love.

We are looking for a capable and confident individual to join our teaching staff and provide classroom supervision in the absence of a regular teacher. You will not be responsible for setting work but will supervise and help students with their learning and be expected to maintain a positive learning environment in a classroom setting.

You will need to work effectively as part of a small team and have good communication skills. Previous experience of working in a school, preferably in a classroom support role and an understanding of the educational system are essential. This opportunity would suit applicants considering a teaching career in the future and need to gain classroom experience.

St Thomas More is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all employees and volunteers to share this commitment. The suitability of all prospective employees or volunteers will be assessed during the recruitment and selection process in line with this commitment. Successful applicants will be required to undertake an enhanced DBS check

Suitable candidates may be interviewed before the closing date and the school reserves the right to withdraw the position if an early appointment is made. Applicants are therefore encouraged to apply early.
