Are you ready to lead from the front?
Sir John Nelthorpe School is a place where tradition meets ambition. We are looking for a confident, adaptable, and charismatic individual to join our team as a Cover Supervisor. Whether you are an aspiring teacher looking for classroom experience or a seasoned professional who loves the energy of a school environment, this is your chance to make a tangible impact.
What you’ll be doing:
No two days are the same. You won’t just be "minding a class"; you’ll be the face of the classroom when a teacher is away, ensuring students remain focused, motivated, and on task.
Lead the Room: Manage classroom behavior and maintain a positive learning environment.
Deliver Lessons: Facilitate pre-set work across a variety of subjects (don’t worry, you don’t need to be an expert in everything!).
Support & Inspire: Help students navigate their tasks and answer their questions with clarity.
Join the Community: Work closely with our dedicated departments to ensure seamless continuity for our pupils.
Why Sir John Nelthorpe?
We are a school with a rich history and a very bright future. We pride ourselves on a culture of mutual respect and high expectations.
Professional Growth: Excellent stepping stone for those pursuing a career in education.
Supportive Environment: You’ll be part of a tight-knit staff body that looks out for one another.
The "Brigg" Advantage: Work in a beautiful market town with a community-focused atmosphere.
Who you are:
Resilient: You stay calm under pressure and handle challenges with a smile.
Communicative: You can explain instructions clearly and engage with young people effectively.
Organized: You can jump into a new subject area at a moment's notice and keep things running smoothly.
Qualified: You possess strong literacy and numeracy skills (Grade C/4 or above in English and Maths).
This is a rewarding and varied role within a busy and vibrant school environment. Previous experience in a school setting or working with young people is desirable but not essential – full training and induction will be provided.
Closing Date for Applications: 9:00am on Monday 28th September 2026
Sir John Nelthorpe School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be required to undertake an enhanced DBS check.
We look forward to receiving your application.
