Job Title: Cover Supervisor Location: Blackburn (Multiple Schools) Contract Type: Flexible, Casual Start Date: ASAP

We are seeking a reliable and flexible Cover Supervisor to work across multiple secondary schools in Blackburn. This role offers a flexible, casual position where you'll be required to cover various schools within the area. The hours and shifts will vary based on the daily and weekly needs of the schools, and work is not guaranteed. You must be comfortable with early morning calls for day-to-day cover, and be willing to travel to different school locations as required. No week will be the same, and flexibility is key.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide day-to-day cover across multiple schools within the Blackburn area, overseeing classes in the absence of the regular teacher
  • Follow provided lesson plans and ensure students remain on task and complete set work
  • Manage classroom behaviour, ensuring a positive and respectful learning environment at all times
  • Support students with additional learning needs, where applicable, and provide assistance as required
  • Be proactive in dealing with behaviour management issues and maintaining control in the classroom
  • Be prepared for early morning calls and be willing to travel between different school locations daily
  • Qualifications and Experience:

  • Experience working with secondary school students (desirable)
  • Confidence in managing lessons independently and handling behaviour management issues
  • Strong communication, organisational, and time-management skills
  • A flexible attitude and willingness to travel to different school locations in East Lancashire
  • Ability to remain professional and adaptable in different school environments
  • Own transport is essential due to the nature of the role
  • What We Offer:

  • A flexible, dynamic role with the opportunity to work in a variety of school environments
  • A chance to gain valuable experience across multiple schools within East Lancashire
  • Competitive hourly rate
  • Professional development and support in your role as a Cover Supervisor
  • This role is ideal for candidates looking for variety and flexibility in their work, as no two weeks will be the same. If you are confident in managing classrooms, open to traveling between schools, and ready for the flexibility that this role requires, we'd love to hear from you!

    Please apply to be contacted for this exciting opportunity.
