As Cover Supervisor, you will supervise classes or groups of pupils undertaking activities that have previously been prepared by appropriate teaching staff when the assigned teacher is not present on a short-term basis. There may also be a requirement to work with individuals or groups of pupils at other times to support learning or pastoral activities or to provide other relevant support to teaching staff.
What You’ll Bring to Futura
We are looking for a positive, proactive and enthusiastic Cover Supervisor to join our committed team of educators. The successful candidate will cover lessons across the school when teachers are absent, doing their best to introduce content and facilitate/support ongoing learning.

• Experience: Prior experience of working with children and/or teaching/coaching would be beneficial for this role.
• Skills: More important than direct experience in a school is the ability to engage and connect with young people in a warm and supportive way whilst also communicating our high expectations of their conduct and effort. The successful candidate will be proactive and able to quickly adapt and learn new subject matter.
You will demonstrate a passion for creating a supportive and inclusive environment for all members of our school community.
You will align with our trust-wide values by bringing a positive, collaborative approach to your work and a willingness to continuously develop professionally.
