Want to turn your degree and transferable skills into valuable classroom experience?
Supply Teach is recruiting graduates to work as Cover Supervisors across secondary schools in Derby, supporting schools when their usual teachers are absent.
No teaching qualification is required. For graduates considering teacher training, this can be an excellent way to gain genuine classroom experience before deciding on your next step.
The role
As a Cover Supervisor, you'll supervise secondary school classes where work has already been prepared by the absent teacher.
Your day could involve:
* Supervising pupils across Key Stages 3 and 4
* Introducing pre-set activities and keeping pupils on task
* Managing classroom behaviour confidently and positively
* Responding to questions and providing general classroom support
* Following the school's behaviour and safeguarding procedures
You won't be expected to plan lessons or take work home to mark.
Could this suit you?
We're particularly interested in hearing from graduates who are confident, personable and able to build positive relationships with young people.
You may be:
* Considering teacher training
* Exploring whether education is the right career for you
* Looking to gain classroom experience
* A recent graduate wanting flexible work
* Experienced in coaching, tutoring, mentoring, youth work or working with young people
Previous classroom experience is useful, but it isn't essential for every opportunity.
What's more important is that you can communicate clearly, remain calm under pressure and confidently take responsibility for a classroom.
