Cover Supervisor job summary
We are seeking to appoint a proactive and enthusiastic individual to support teaching and learning within our school. The role involves supervising lessons in the absence of a class teacher, to ensure that students continue to learn new knowledge and or have opportunities to revisit prior knowledge, so that they continue to progress through the curriculum.

• Following the school’s systems to ensure a disruptive free learning environment for all pupils.
• Establishing purposeful and positive relationships with students.
The role involves you being in front of a class of students (across the secondary age range), supervising a lesson. You would be sharing pre prepared resources with students across multiple subjects, rather than one subject, ensuring students complete the work that has been set. The key purpose in your role, is to secure continuity of learning in the teacher’s absence. Thus enabling students to continue to progress through the curriculum, master new knowledge and skills or consolidating ones they have already learned.
