Flexible working hours available in local secondary schools.

About the role

looking for flexible work alongside your university studies? Want to gain valuable experience, develop your skills and earn money while making a difference?

We are looking for enthusiastic, reliable and confident university students to join our team as Cover Supervisors, supporting local secondary schools.

This is a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience working with young people, build confidence and develop transferable skills that will benefit you in your future career.

The role – What will you be doing?

As a Cover Supervisor, you will help keep students engaged and learning when their regular teacher is absent. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Supervising classes of secondary school students across a range of subjects.
  • Delivering pre-prepared lesson work and ensuring students remain on task.
  • Creating a positive, supportive and well-managed classroom environment.
  • Encouraging students to participate, stay motivated and achieve their best.
  • Managing classroom behaviour in line with the school's policies.
  • Providing feedback to teaching staff at the end of lessons.

Who are we looking for?

This role would suit university students looking for flexible work that can fit around their studies.

We would love to hear from individuals who are:

  • Confident, approachable and enthusiastic.
  • Reliable, organised and able to use their own initiative.
  • Good communicators who can build positive relationships with young people.
  • Able to motivate, encourage and engage secondary school students.
  • Interested in education, teaching, youth work or gaining experience in a school environment.

Previous experience working with young people is desirable but not essential, as full training and support can be provided.

Whether you are considering a future career in teaching or simply looking for rewarding, flexible work, this could be the perfect opportunity!

What we offer

As a valued member of our team, you will benefit from:

  • Excellent daily rates, paid through PAYE.
  • Flexible working opportunities to fit around your university timetable.
  • A guaranteed pay scheme (subject to availability).
  • Social and networking events.
  • Pension contributions.
  • CPD opportunities to support your professional development.
  • Access to a dedicated consultant who will support you throughout your journey.

Safeguarding and compliance

The safety and wellbeing of young people is our priority. All applicants will undertake thorough interviewing and referencing checks and must hold, or be willing to obtain, an Enhanced DBS check registered on the Update Service.

How to apply

If you are an enthusiastic university student who enjoys working with people, can inspire and motivate young learners, and would love the challenge of working in a rewarding school environment, we would love to hear from you!
