Cover Supervisor
About This Role
To supervise whole classes during the absence of teachers. Cover Supervisor will give instructions for the lesson as provided by a teacher and the primary focus of the role will be to maintain good order and keep students on task.
Cover Supervisor will respond to general questions and provide general feedback to teachers but will not be required to undertake ‘specified work’ (planning, preparation, assessment, recording and reporting of achievement, progress and development). Cover Supervisor will not therefore be subject to a ‘system of supervision’ other than the general supervision applicable to all staff and will act under the professional direction of teachers.
When not ‘covering’ classes the Cover Supervisor will be used for administrative support under the direction of the Director of Operations.
