Being a Principal Resourcing Cover Supervisor
Cover supervisor are extremely valuable members of the team. Although they do not deliver lessons like a supply teacher does, the other elements of the role apply. As a cover supervisor through Principal Resourcing, you will have access to assignments in most of the local schools and academies.
We’ll give you transparent expectations during your induction and additional training and support is available if required. Schools expect confident and engaging candidates with the ability to manage behaviour to a high standard.
The role involves:
- Supervising students while their usual teacher is unavailable
- Supporting students to complete any pre-set work
- Managing students’ behaviour during the class in line with behaviour policies
- Collecting work and providing necessary feedback
Working as a cover supervisor provides an excellent stepping stone for a future career in teaching.
The types of assignments we can offer
Cover supervisors work in the secondary sector and cover in the absence of the teacher. Most of the work we get is for day-to-day supply, covering planned absence or can be last minute to cover sickness. Whatever your preferences, we will try our best to accommodate your needs.
Some clients prefer consistency and may request the same cover supervisors for repeated assignments. This means it is possible that we can offer long term work.
