Are you confident, adaptable, and enthusiastic about working with young people? We are seeking reliable and proactive Cover Supervisors to work across secondary schools in the Rossendale area on day-to-day and short-term assignments.

About the Role

As a Cover Supervisor, you will play a vital role in maintaining continuity of learning in the absence of the class teacher. This is an excellent opportunity for aspiring teachers, education graduates, or individuals with strong classroom or youth-work experience.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Answering questions where possible and managing the flow of the lesson
  • Reporting any issues or feedback to the appropriate staff members

  • Have experience working with young people (schools, tutoring, coaching, youth work, etc.)
  • Are confident in managing behaviour and leading a classroom
  • Are adaptable, professional, and able to think on their feet
  • Can work flexibly across various secondary year groups
  • Are available for day-to-day supply, short-term assignments, or both
  • Hold an enhanced DBS on the update service (or are willing to apply for one)
  • Why Work With Us?

  • Flexible work that fits around your schedule
  • Variety of placements across supportive Rossendale schools
  • Ideal experience for aspiring teachers or those exploring a career in education
  • Competitive daily pay and ongoing professional support
  • If you're ready to step into a dynamic school environment and make a positive difference each day, we'd love to hear from you.
