Do you enjoy working with young people aged 11 – 18? Have you considered working in Secondary Schools as a Cover Supervisor?

We are working with a range of Secondary Schools based in West London who are looking for confident, professional, and dedicated individuals to work as Cover Supervisors in their schools, providing short-term and daily cover for teachers.

The role of a cover supervisor is to work in secondary schools, covering classes and ensuring students are working on tasks whilst teachers are absent or engaged in other activities and meetings. This is a key role within secondary schools, and almost every secondary school will engage Cover Supervisors to support their staff.

This is a great opportunity to work on a flexible basis and gain experience within secondary schools.

Cover Supervisors are required for the full school day—8.30 am to 3.45 pm (approx.).

Flexible work options Most Cover Supervisors begin work on a short-term/supply basis. This is ideal if you just want to work a few days in local schools or want to build experience within the secondary school sector. For more experienced Cover Supervisors, we have full-time contracts available.

Who we are looking for We are seeking Subject graduates—ideally in English, Maths, Science, Geography, or PE—who are interested in working with young people in secondary schools.

You do not need any formal teaching qualifications to be a Cover Supervisor, but we do require you to have had some experience working with 11–18-year-olds.

Cover Supervisor work is ideal for:

• Graduates who are considering becoming secondary school teachers
• Boxing Coaches
• Actors
• Youth workers
• Summer camp leaders
• Sports coaches for 11–18 yrs
• People who have experience supporting young offenders

You will need an Enhanced DBS certificate to work with children and 2 references covering the past two years. If you haven't got a DBS, we can help you apply for one through the UK Disclosure and Barring Service.

Most importantly, you need a confident, positive, and professional approach to working with young people.
