Cover Supervisor

We are currently supporting a number of well-regarded secondary schools across Oldham who are looking to appoint reliable and confident Cover Supervisors on both full-time and part-time bases. These opportunities offer the chance to work in supportive school settings where strong behaviour policies are in place and where staff are genuinely valued.

This role is ideal for individuals who enjoy working with young people and are confident managing a classroom in the absence of a teacher. You will be delivering pre-set work, keeping students on task, and maintaining a calm and focused learning environment. Whether you are an experienced Cover Supervisor, a recent graduate considering a career in education, or someone with strong transferable skills from a similar setting, there are opportunities available to suit your background and availability.

One of the key benefits of these roles is the flexibility on offer. We understand that work-life balance is important, so whether you’re looking for consistent full-time work or a more flexible part-time schedule that fits around other commitments, we can match you with opportunities that suit your needs. This is a great option if you want to gain experience across different schools, or if you prefer to settle into a longer-term placement within one setting.

Schools we work with are located across Oldham, with good transport links and welcoming teams who provide clear guidance and ongoing support. You’ll be stepping into a structured classroom environment with lesson plans already prepared, allowing you to focus on managing behaviour and supporting pupils’ learning. Strong communication skills, resilience and the ability to build rapport quickly are key to succeeding in this role.

If you are motivated, adaptable and keen to make a difference in secondary schools across Oldham, apply today to find out more about current Cover Supervisor opportunities and how we can support your next step.
