Job description

We are seeking to appoint a Cover Supervisor to provide efficient and high-quality cover for the short term absence of teaching staff. This key post will appeal to someone who has a broad understanding of the secondary curriculum and good classroom management skills and could be an ideal opportunity for someone seeking to gain experience prior to embarking on a PGCE, teaching or similar qualification.

In return we offer candidates: fantastic students; a culture based on shared values; committed, professional and well- qualified colleagues; and good professional development opportunities and support.

A job share arrangement may be possible for the right candidate(s).

Education has the power to change lives, communities and society for the better. At RLT we believe that we can achieve more for our pupils, trainees, staff and communities by working together rather than alone. Schools in RLT are united by a common belief in the benefits of working together, and by our commitment to shared principles.

OUR VISION is for our schools and SCITT to improve rapidly, continuously and sustainably: to be better faster together.

OUR 'WHY?' is that children and young people 'only get one go' in school and therefore as part of RLT we aim to ensure the best possible 'go' for our pupils.

OUR 'HOW?' is through the highest support and challenge for our schools and each other, underpinned by our principles.

Our employees benefit from a wide variety of support including extensive continuing professional learning and development opportunities, wellbeing and staff networks and access to Defined Benefit Pension Schemes (TPS and LGPS) for all staff.

This role includes regulated activity relevant to children.
