The role of a cover supervisor is to cover lessons in the absence of the class teacher.

The cover supervisor role often takes place across a full day where there is the requirement to cover across the whole subject and age range.

- Variety of secondary schools situated on the West side of Warrington which all request cover supervisors to cover lessons
- Proactive and reactive cover with schools advising of requirements in advance but also in the morning; full flexibility for the relevant cover supervisors
- Competitive pay rate equating to GBP57 - GBP70 per day depending on the length of the school day and specific responsibilities
- Opportunity to cover lessons and support within lessons where applicable
- Gain invaluable experience within a secondary school which will support a future application onto a PGCE for example

- Individual with cover supervisor experience
- Youth Worker
- Teaching Assistant
- Tutor

Schools in this area of Warrington are reputable with them servicing a community whereby students are generally engaged with school life and exhibit positive behaviour. Covering lessons is therefore a positive experience at these schools but still brings with it an element of behaviour management.
