As a Cover Supervisor, you will be responsible for supervising classes during short-term teacher absences, ensuring that students remain on task and are actively engaged in their work. You will play an important role in maintaining a positive and productive learning environment, supporting students with their studies, and upholding the high standards of behaviour and conduct within the school.

Key Responsibilities:

* Supervise students during lessons and ensure they are engaged in the work set by the absent teacher.

* Help monitor students’ progress during lessons and provide constructive feedback where appropriate.

* Assist with administrative tasks related to lesson cover (e.g., taking registers).

* Support students in their academic and personal development, maintaining a focus on achievement and well-being.

* Step in for teaching staff in emergency situations, as needed.

About You:

* Previous experience working with young people, preferably in an educational setting, is desirable but not essential.

* Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build rapport with students and staff.

* Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage a classroom effectively.

* Confident and assertive in managing behaviour and maintaining discipline.

* A positive, flexible approach and a willingness to engage with a range of tasks.

* The ability to adapt to different subjects and year groups with ease.

* A genuine interest in supporting students’ learning and development.

Desirable Qualifications:

* A qualification in education, teaching, or childcare (e.g., Level 2/3 Teaching Assistant qualification or similar) is advantageous but not essential.

* Experience in working with students with Special Educational Needs (SEN) is a plus.

Why Join Us?

* A supportive and welcoming school environment.

* Opportunities for professional development and career progression.

* The chance to make a real difference in the educational experience of students.

* Competitive salary, in line with experience.

* A positive, friendly, and team-oriented atmosphere.
