Connex - Nottingham
Have you considered a role within teaching or within an educational setting? If yes, you’ve come to the right place!
Connex Education are working in partnership with great academies across Northamptonshire who have opportunities for cover supervisors to join their team on a long term or short term basis. The roles all have the option to become permanent if desired, so this is a great opportunity to secure a long term post and take that next step in your career within education, starting ASAP.
What does the role consist of?
As an Unqualified Teacher/Cover Supervisor, you will be required to support across a range of subjects, providing relief for absent teachers. The role as a cover supervisor is very centred around behaviour management and you will be responsible for keeping students on task and ensuring they complete the work left by the subject specialist teacher. There may be occasions you will be asked to support as a teaching assistant, working alongside the class teacher with smaller groups or 1:1.
The Cover Supervisor role is a great stepping stone for anyone looking to take on a career in education but seeking more insight and experience into the inner workings of the classroom. This role suits people with backgrounds in similar roles such as youth work, coaching, NCS Programme’s, teaching assistant etc.
