Cover Supervisors are required for the full school day, approximately 8:30 am to 3:45 pm.

You will need an Enhanced DBS certificate to work with children, along with two references covering the past two years. If you do not have a DBS, we can assist you in obtaining one from the UK Disclosure and Barring Service.
