We pride ourselves on building strong relationships with local schools and matching talented candidates with rewarding opportunities that suit their skills, experience and availability. Our dedicated consultants provide ongoing support, weekly pay and access to a wide range of vacancies across the education sector.

The Role as a Cover Supervisor, you will be responsible for supervising pre-planned lessons in the absence of the classroom teacher. You will ensure students remain engaged with the work provided, maintain a positive learning environment and follow the school’s behaviour policies.

  • Follow school safeguarding and behaviour policies at all times.

RequirementsTo be considered for this role, you should have:

  • Experience working with children or young people (school-based experience is desirable but not essential).
  • Excellent classroom management and communication skills.
  • Confidence supervising classes independently.
  • A flexible and adaptable approach to work.
  • A passion for supporting students in their education.
  • An enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to obtain one.
