This role is ideal for graduates or anyone with a passion for education who wants to explore life in the classroom before committing to teacher training.

• Taking attendance and providing handover notes for the returning teacher

• Supporting pupils in line with school policies and expectations

Successful candidates are confident, adaptable, and enthusiastic, with a proactive approach to supporting learning. If you’re new to the role, you’ll receive full training through our Cover Supervisor Training Programme—designed to give you the tools and confidence to succeed.

We’re looking for individuals who:

• Hold a degree or equivalent qualification

• Have a strong interest in education and supporting young people

• Are confident communicators with a positive attitude

• Can manage a classroom with professionalism and care

• Are keen to learn and take on new challenges

Experience working in schools is desirable but not essential.

• Competitive daily rates, paid weekly via PAYE

• Ongoing CPD and professional support

• Social and networking events

• Pension contributions

• Support from your own dedicated consultant
