Job Description

Do you have experience working as a Cover Supervisor or Higher-Level Teaching Assistant? Are you looking for the opportunity to work across successful Secondary schools in Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells, and expand on your experience covering lessons and taking the lead within the classroom?

If so, we have the perfect role for you!

As a Cover Supervisor, you will be expected to cover lessons in the absence of teachers, ensuring that the lessons are delivered effectively, and that the objective of each lesson is clear to all pupils.

Having worked as a HLTA myself, I know what a dynamic and exciting role this is, as you can be called upon at any time to cover a different subject or lesson on short notice, but it enables you to expand on your subject knowledge across the curriculum and build relationships with a large number or students.

• Maintain a positive and inclusive classroom atmosphere, ensuring all students are engaged and supported.

• Adapt teaching methods to meet the needs of different learning styles and abilities.

• Provide feedback to students to help them progress and achieve their full potential.

• Collaborate with other staff members to ensure a smooth transition and continuity of learning.

• Uphold the school’s values and ethos, contributing positively to the school community.

What we are looking for -

• At least 6 months working within an education setting

• Real passion for education and learning.

• Have the ability to develop good relationships with pupils, parents, carers and colleagues

• Adaptable and reliable.

• Be able to use your own initiative to work as part of a team

• Have experience of the UK curriculum; minimum 6 months.
