Summary
What skills and experience we're looking for
Are you looking to work in a vibrant school community?
We are looking for a reliable and motivational individual who can
demonstrate excellent interpersonal and organisational skills and has the
natural ability to connect with our students
to join our fantastic team of Cover Teachers.
With a flexible approach to working, the successful candidate will be
able to create a calm and purposeful class environment and provide support to a
variety of staff and students.
You will be an integral part of a friendly and committed team of staff.
In this key position, your primary duties will be to supervise a group of
students during the short-term absence of their regular teacher to ensure that
the work set is understood and completed, whilst maintaining the good behaviour
of the students, keeping them on task, responding to questions, and generally
assisting students to undertake and engage in the set learning activities.
Prior experience of working in a school would be an advantage but not
essential. We provide support and training, including behaviour management
skills and there will be opportunities to observe good practice of both
classroom teachers and other cover teachers in order to develop good
practitioner skills.
In addition to cover supervision, you will be expected to cover some
additional duties.
This post would be ideal for an ECT or an aspiring teacher as this role
will provide you with first-hand experience of working in a school setting.
