We are looking for self-confident, calm, well organised and flexible individual. You will be covering registration and lessons for absent colleagues and will need to demonstrate the same level of professionalism and dedication as teaching staff in order to succeed in this role. ILS Co-ordinators are not expected to teach, but rather supervise students who have been set work by the absent teacher. This role would suit either those thinking of a career in teaching or someone who just enjoys working with young people.
Your role will involve supervising students during the short term absence of teachers within the classroom, or supporting a teacher within the Independent Learning Suite. You will have the skills to maintain good order and keep students on task.
This role includes regulated activity relevant to children.
