Full job descriptionCover Supervisor - Lincoln
We are seeking confident, reliable individuals to support primary schools in maintaining continuity of learning during teacher absences. This role requires professionalism, clear communication, and the ability to manage a classroom environment effectively.
Working across a network of primary schools, you will deliver pre-set lessons, ensure students remain engaged, and uphold school expectations. This is not a teaching role; instead, it focuses on supervision, behaviour management, and providing a consistent, supportive presence in the classroom.
Key responsibilities:
*Delivering pre-prepared lessons across a range of subjects
*Maintaining a focused and orderly classroom environment
*Managing behaviour in line with school policies
*Supporting students in completing assigned work
Who we’re looking for:
We welcome applications from individuals with a range of backgrounds, particularly:
*Graduates considering a career in education who are looking to gain practical classroom experience
*Former or current support staff (e.g. teaching assistants, learning mentors) ready to take on more responsibility
*Youth workers, sports coaches, or community leaders with experience engaging and managing young people
What matters most is your ability to:
*Communicate clearly and confidently with young people
*Establish authority and maintain a calm, controlled environment
*Adapt quickly to different classrooms and school settings
*Approach behaviour management in a consistent and professional manner
Why consider this role:
*Valuable, hands-on experience in secondary school settings
*Flexible working arrangements to suit your availability
*Opportunity to build on existing experience with young people
*No lesson planning or marking responsibilities
Who this role would suit:
Individuals who are confident, organised, and comfortable leading a classroom. Whether you are exploring teaching as a career or building on existing experience working with young people, this role offers a practical and rewarding next step.
