Vision for Education is inviting motivated and ambitious recent graduates to join our highly successful Cover Supervisor Programme (CSP). This programme is designed for individuals who are looking to transition into teaching and want to build valuable classroom experience before applying for teacher training.

As a Cover Supervisor, you will deliver pre-prepared lessons in the absence of the classroom teacher, ensuring students remain engaged and on task. Full training is provided, so no teaching qualifications or prior school experience are required.

Graduates from academic, sporting, and performance backgrounds tend to excel in these roles due to their confidence, resilience, and strong communication skills.

We offer a range of flexible placements, but candidates who can commit to a minimum of four days per week are particularly sought after. This is an excellent opportunity to develop your classroom management skills while earning £400-£600 per week.

Requirements

• The successful candidate will have:
• Have a degree or relevant experience working with young people
• Be confident leading a classroom and managing behaviour
• Be adaptable, organised, and reliable
• Have strong communication skills
• Be passionate about working with young people and supporting their learning
• Be willing to obtain an Enhanced DBS check on the Update Service

Experience working in a school setting is desirable but not essential, as full training will be provided.

What we offer

As a Coversupervisor, part of our team, you benefit from:

• Excellent daily rates paid using the PAYE system. (Daily rate is subject to your scale rate, experience in role and qualifications which will be discussed at the point of registration.)
• Guaranteed pay scheme (subject to availability).
• Social and networking events.
• Pension contributions.
• CPD to help with your professional development.
• Access to a dedicated consultant.

This role can provide a clear pathway into teacher training and long-term careers in education.
