Guided by our core values of resilience, integrity, trust, and ambition, we strive to create a community where every student feels a deep sense of belonging and is empowered to achieve their full potential.

In 2024, Ofsted recognised our ongoing improvement, rating us as ‘Good’ in Leadership & Management, Behaviour & Attitudes, and Personal Development. This reflects our unwavering focus on providing a safe, respectful, and aspirational environment where students can thrive both academically and personally. In recent years, our academy has undergone significant transformation and responsiveness to the changing educational landscape. We are a forward-looking school unafraid to push boundaries, embrace new challenges, and continuously develop our practice.
Leeds East Academy is part of White Rose Academies Trust, a local trust dedicated to raising aspirations and unlocking the potential of young people across Leeds. Together, we are committed to delivering a world-class education and creating life-changing opportunities for all.
Role:
Are you passionate about supporting young people and making a real difference in the classroom? This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in maintaining high-quality learning across our academy.
As a Cover Supervisor, you will work closely with senior teaching staff and within an agreed system of supervision to deliver engaging lessons and targeted interventions. You’ll help ensure continuity of learning by supervising whole classes during teacher absence and providing bespoke support to individual students and small groups.
What you’ll do:
• Deliver dynamic and high-quality cover lessons across Key Stages 3 and 4.
• Provide tailored one-to-one and small group interventions to help students thrive.
• Foster a positive, respectful, and supportive learning environment where every student can reach their full potential.
• Collaborate with colleagues and embrace opportunities for professional development.
• Champion our academy vision of “Everyone Exceptional” and help bring it to life every day.
This role is perfect for someone who is adaptable, enthusiastic, and committed to helping students succeed. You’ll gain valuable classroom experience and be part of a dedicated team that puts learners first.
The Cover Supervisor role offers valuable classroom experience and the opportunity to work across a range of subjects, supporting learning continuity and student engagement. However, because this position does not involve a fixed timetable or subject-specific teaching, it does not meet the requirements for completing the Early Career Teacher (ECT) induction. If you are seeking a role that supports ECT completion, we recommend applying for a teaching position within your subject area.
Part of White Rose Academies Trust - Leeds East Academy is accelerating on a thrilling journey, which will ultimately see the school, its staff and its students, secure continued strides for the school and the community that it serves.
We are securing our vision for World Class by growing our family of exceptional education professionals; dedicated specialists and passionate leaders with the shared goal of transforming future prospects for the next generation in West Yorkshire.
We believe the trust is a highly desirable place of work for an ambitious professional, who will be joining one of the most supportive and talented teams in the country.
