Cover Supervisor

What skills and experience we're looking for

You will be responsible for independently covering classes, often outside of your specialism, in the absence of the class teacher. You will also support the learning of students in your attached faculty. These abilities will be assessed at interview.

This role would be particularly suitable for someone thinking of a career in teaching. There are many and varied professional development opportunities available and previous Cover Supervisors have successfully gained places on teacher training courses and progressed to become qualified teachers.
