This is an excellent opportunity for an enthusiastic and inspirational candidate to join our team of cover supervisors working at Highcliffe Primary School.

We are looking for someone to work under the guidance of SLT to facilitate cover for planned and unplanned absence of teachers and support staff within the agreed system of supervision.

The successful candidate will be working as part of a team of cover supervisors responsible for facilitating the cover set by absent teachers and will need to work flexibly. They will be able to effectively manage classes in terms of behaviour and promote an environment for learning that supports the progress of pupils. The role is an excellent opportunity for candidates wishing to develop classroom pedagogy before embarking on teacher training.

We offer:

• Excellent opportunities for CPD and collaborative working with colleagues from across the Lionheart Trust.

• A warm and welcoming team of colleagues

• Well behaved and engaged pupils with a supportive parent community

The successful candidate will have to meet the requirements of the person specification, job description and will be subject to an enhanced DBS check. We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and we expect all staff to share this commitment and undergo appropriate checks, therefore, all posts are subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check.


Closing date for application: 09:00am on 18th June 2025

Interviews: 23rd June 2025


The Trust strives to be a diverse and inclusive place where all staff have a seat at the table: a seat to be free, a seat to inspire, a seat to challenge and a seat to succeed.

We currently have staff networks for staff who are Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME), Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Queer + (LGBTQ+), staff who would describe their background as working class and staff with a disability.
