Are you calm under pressure, great with young people and the kind of person a school can rely on?

We’re working with a thriving Catholic secondary school in Staffordshire that is looking for confident, professional cover supervisors to join its team on a day-to-day basis. The school sits on a large, impressive campus with excellent sports facilities, and its community is built on strong values: respect, kindness, high expectations and a genuine commitment to helping every student succeed.

About the role

• Supervising classes when the teacher is absent and keeping learning on track with set work
• Setting a calm, purposeful tone and managing classroom behaviour with confidence
• Being a positive, professional presence around the school
• Working flexibly, with day-to-day cover that can lead to regular or long-term work

About you

• You are confident managing challenging behaviour and have excellent classroom presence
• You are reliable, punctual and professional every time
• You are a strong communicator who stays calm, fair and consistent
• You take pride in doing a good job and want to be part of a school community
• You are happy to work respectfully within the school’s Catholic ethos. You don’t need to be Catholic yourself.

• Aspiring teachers who want classroom experience before applying for training
• Experienced cover supervisors and teaching assistants looking for a new setting
• Retired professionals who want to stay active and give something back
• Anyone who wants flexible work, a way into long-term work, or a way to top up their income

What’s on offer

• Flexible day-to-day work that fits around you
• A friendly, supportive school with a strong sense of community
• A real chance to make a difference to young people’s day
• Support from a dedicated consultant who will keep you informed throughout
