Cover Supervisor

Cover Supervisors required in Kirklees

Do you have experience working with children and young people? Interested in developing a career in teaching? We may have the perfect opportunity for you!

The Education Network is looking for Cover Supervisors of all levels of experience to work in Secondary Schools across Kirklees. Our clients near you need your help to mitigate the effects of teacher sickness and absence on children's education. We therefore require professional, flexible behaviour managers with a passion to work with children to provide them with long-term and short-term classroom cover.

Local work, Guaranteed Pay Scheme (earn up to £325 per week)

The demand is greater than ever due to ever decreasing school budgets and ever-increasing absence. This means there’s a great chance we can keep your work local to you whilst being flexible around your availability. As long as you have a minimum of 2 days availability, we would consider you for one of our Guaranteed Pay Schemes, subject to satisfactory experience, references, and flexibility.

We currently have schemes of 2-5 days in every Local Authority. This will guarantee you a weekly gross pay of between £130-£325 per week.

Role overview:

You wouldn't be expected to plan, prepare, or teach anything; instead, you would cover lessons in the absence of a teacher, ensure the class stays on task, manage the classroom, and assist students with their work as needed.

All we ask is that you:

• Have experience of working with children/young people within the past 2 years
• Have a valid DBS certificate or willingness to apply for one
• Have at least two referees (including at least one child-based reference)
• Are passionate about education and helping children of Leeds reach their full potential!
