Often, new candidates are confused by the concept of cover supervisor supply work. The long and short of it is; you would be employed by Teaching Personnel to work in Secondary schools in the absence of a teacher (subject knowledge not essential).
Schools are ever dependant on our cover supervisors to help the everyday smooth running of the school. In the event of a Teacher becoming absent, our cover supervisors will often be called in to help. The ideal candidate will be able look after the already planned delivery of lessons and will have excellent behaviour management skills.
This means that you represent the Teaching Personnel on any placement you go into; we get regular feedback from schools on your work, therefore the higher the standard of your work whilst in a school will increase your chances of further work down the line.
You will be required to cover lessons across the curriculum in the absence of the Class Teacher. You will be supported by an excellent team who are passionate about helping young people to succeed. This would be an excellent role for a graduate looking to go into Teaching in the future, or someone who simply has great behaviour management skills.
Teaching Personnel have great relationships with their schools, and pride themselves on working in partnership with both candidates and schools alike. So if this sounds like it might interest you and you would like to be considered, please get in touch today by sending your current CV through to our excellent Secondary Team.
All applicants will require the appropriate qualification and training for this role. For teacher roles, we require a formally recognised teaching qualification. For Support staff our minimum requirement is GCSE English & Maths (A-C) or equivalent.
Teaching Personnel is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. All candidates must undertake or have undertaken a valid enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. Full assistance provided.
