Job Description
Looking for a role where every day feels a bit different but still brilliantly rewarding? Becoming a Cover Supervisor is a great way to step into the classroom without the full planning load. You’ll be keeping lessons on track, guiding pupils through set work, and bringing your own calm confidence to the room.
Think of it as being the steady hand on the tiller, making sure learning sails smoothly even when the class teacher’s away.
What you’ll be doing
Supervising classes across a range of subjects
Supporting pupils to stay focused and engaged
Managing behaviour with a fair, calm approach
Delivering pre-prepared work, no planning required
Building brilliant relationships with staff and students
Keeping the school day running smoothly, one lesson at a time
What schools love to see
Experience working with young people, ideally in education or youth settings
Confidence leading a classroom (or the enthusiasm to learn)
Strong communication skills and a sense of humour
A positive, reliable attitude
Adaptability, because no two days ever look quite the same
Why this role is great
Cover supervising is a fantastic stepping stone into teaching, pastoral work, or long-term school roles. You get hands-on experience, support from your consultant, and the chance to make a real impact without the workload of a full teaching post.
