Are you considering teaching training, but first you want to gain valuable hands-on experience in a secondary classroom?
Academics are looking for a cover supervisor who is able to travel across Sheffield and surrounding areas and looking for a fantastic opportunity to begin their career in education.
What is a cover supervisor?
A cover supervisor (also known as an unqualified teacher) works within secondary schools to provide cover for a class when a teacher is not available. They are employed on a flexible and day-to-day basis to ensure that a teacher can have time away from the classroom to carry out other duties (PPA time, training days, etc.). They may also cover lessons for short periods of time for teachers who are away from school due to sickness or for other absences. Cover supervisors are not responsible for planning or assessing a lesson; the teacher will set work for students to complete, and the cover supervisor's responsibility is to manage behaviour and ensure that pupils remain on task and complete their work.
