The Cover Supervisor role offers the successful candidates the perfect opportunity to become involved in the learning of young people. This can be a career in itself, or serve as a springboard to a teaching career or other work with young people in the future. We support our cover supervisors’ specialisms about which they are passionate, whilst also providing breadth of experience. A specific interest in working within a certain Key Stage (i.e only years 7&8) could be considered. The ability to work as a team and learn new skills is more important than previous experience, and full training will be provided.

Duties include supporting a mixture of classes during the absence of the regular class teacher, setting the work provided, monitoring/managing behaviour and keeping students on task as well as supporting teachers in the classroom. You will have high standards of expectation, deliver lively and engaging lessons from existing plans and support students by responding to questions. Although you will not be teaching, ensuring the students keep on task is most important, so good classroom management is essential.

Benefits of working for our trust include:

• Friendly and sociable colleagues
• Free on-site car park
• Good transport links
• Staff membership rates to our modern on-site Leisure Centre
• Enrolment in one of the UK’s Largest public sector pension schemes
• A tax efficient Cycle-to-Work scheme through salary sacrifice
