Who can become a cover supervisor?
A cover supervisor role may suit many different people, especially those who already have experience working with young people.
You may be suited to cover supervisor work if you are:
- A teaching assistant looking for a new challenge
- A sports coach or youth worker
- A lunchtime supervisor wanting to progress
- A retired teacher looking for flexible work
- A graduate considering teacher training
- Someone returning to education after time away
- Someone with SEND, ALN or SEMH experience
- A person considering a future teaching career
Experience with young people is often more important than formal qualifications. Schools want to know that you can communicate clearly, manage behaviour, stay calm under pressure and follow school procedures.
Typical cover supervisor responsibilities include:
- Taking the register
- Introducing the work set by the teacher
- Explaining instructions clearly
- Managing classroom behaviour
- Keeping pupils focused and on task
- Supporting pupils where possible without teaching new content
- Following the school’s behaviour and safeguarding procedures
- Collecting completed work
- Leaving feedback for the usual teacher
- Keeping the classroom tidy and safe
Cover supervisors may also support with duties during form time, break, lunch or exams, depending on the school’s requirements.
