About the Role
Remedy Education is looking to appoint a confident and adaptable SEND Cover Supervisor to work across specialist and mainstream settings that support pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with strong classroom management skills and a passion for inclusive education.

Your Responsibilities Will Include:

• Delivering planned lessons to small groups or whole classes across KS2-KS4 in SEND provisions.
• Managing behaviour effectively and using de-escalation strategies when necessary.
• Supporting pupils' learning and emotional well-being throughout the school day.
• Working closely with teaching assistants and SEN staff to ensure pupils' individual needs are met.
• Adapting learning tasks where required and providing feedback to teaching staff.

What We're Looking For:

• Previous experience working with children or young people, ideally in an educational or care setting.
• Strong communication and behaviour management skills.
• A calm, confident presence with the ability to lead a classroom.
• Familiarity with or willingness to learn about SEND, particularly SEMH and Autism.
• A genuine desire to support young people who may find education challenging
