Job Introduction
We are seeking to appoint a Cover Supervisor on a permanent full-time contract with the skills and experience to develop positive working relationships with young people.
Being a cover supervisor is an excellent opportunity for someone thinking of teaching as a career and wants some hands-on experience; or an existing teacher wanting to move away from the pressures of marking and planning but stay in the classroom. Full training will be given to the successful candidate.
Key responsibilities
- Provide short term cover for absent teaching staff and provide general feedback to the regular class teacher.
- Be responsible for promoting and safeguarding the welfare of children and young people you are responsible for.
- Encourage positive behaviour through the implementation of the school behaviour policy and practices, and encourage students to take responsibility for their own behaviour.
- Contribute to the overall aims and ethos of Warblington School and be a role model for students through exemplary professional conduct.
- Attend and participate in meetings as required
Excellent communication and organisational skills are essential, as is the ability to work both as a team and independently. Previous experience of working with young people is desirable and the ability to contribute to the wider life of the school will be an advantage.
What We Offer:
- A supportive and friendly working environment.
- Opportunities for professional development and growth.
- The chance to make a real difference in the lives of our students.
- Free access to Doctor Care 24/7 healthcare for you and up to 5 dependents
