The School and Role

We are working with several secondary schools in the Newquay and surrounding areas. Our partnering schools are seeking candidates to work as Cover Supervisors. Successful candidates will have the opportunity to work on daily supply or in longer fixed-term supply contracts.

As a Cover Supervisor, you will be responsible for leading lessons of approximately 30 pupils in the absence of the class teacher.

It will be your role to facilitate the class's learning, manage classroom behaviour, record accurate registers, and provide a handover to the absent teacher.

Successful Cover Supervisors are adaptable, flexible, motivated, confident, and organised. They have a passion for education and a strong desire to support young people.

This role provides a great opportunity to gain experience working within a secondary school prior to applying for Initial Teacher Training. Although previous experience in a secondary school is desirable, it is not essential. If you are new to the role, you will be offered a comprehensive Cover Supervisor Training Programme to equip you with the skills needed.
