What skills and experience we're looking for
We are seeking to appoint a proactive and organised Lead Cover Supervisor to oversee the delivery of high-quality lesson cover and coordinate the deployment of staff in response to both planned and unplanned absences.
The successful candidate will play a vital role in maintaining consistency and continuity in students’ learning by managing a team of Cover Supervisors, liaising with internal staff and external supply agencies, and leading on the organisation of daily and long-term cover arrangements. You will be the first point of contact for staff absence reporting, maintain accurate records using SIMS, and ensure efficient allocation of cover each morning.
