This is an excellent opportunity for graduates, aspiring teachers, or experienced education professionals who want to gain valuable classroom experience while maintaining control over their schedule.

The Role:
As a Cover Supervisor, you will step into the classroom to deliver pre-set work in the absence of the regular teacher.

No planning or marking is required, making this a perfect role for those who enjoy working with young people without the added workload.

  • Opportunity to secure long-term or permanent roles

What We're Looking For:

  • Strong communication and classroom management skills
  • Confidence working with secondary-aged students
  • A positive, adaptable, and proactive attitude
  • Previous experience working with young people (desirable but not essential)
  • A valid DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to apply)
