Cover Supervisor with an interest in PE

We are delighted to be seeking an enthusiastic

cover supervisor to join our team this summer. You will join a small but enthusiastic team of dedicated cover

teachers to support absent colleagues across the school.

The applicant will be expected to supervise

whole single classes of students under the direction of a teacher during the

short-term absence of a class teacher.

This is an ideal opportunity

for a confident, flexible, well-organised person who is considering a career in

teaching. The role may suit someone looking to gain classroom experience before

applying for a PGCE or SCITT placement. This would be appropriate for anyone

specifically looking for experience in teaching PE but would not solely be

expected to do this.

The ideal candidate will have good communication

skills, as you will have to liaise between the school office, class teachers

and students. You will be required to ensure all work set is completed to a

high standard.

The successful candidate will:

Have the ability to work on their own initiative. Educated to GCSE level in English & Maths. Good communication skills and ability to clarify and explain

instructions clearly. Keen to learn and develop professionally.

Previous experience of work in a similar role

would be an advantage, but not essential.
