Cover Supervisor - Secondary School
Full Time | Term Time Only | Immediate Start
Up to -145 per day | Long-Term Role

Long Term Futures are recruiting an experienced and confident Cover Supervisor to join a mainstream secondary school, providing classroom cover across KS3 and KS4.

This is a long-term Cover Supervisor position, rather than day-to-day supply. You will supervise pre-planned lessons across a variety of subjects, ensuring students remain focused, complete the work set and maintain high standards of behaviour.

Excellent behaviour management is essential. The role would be particularly well suited to a qualified teacher looking for a non-planning role, an experienced HLTA ready to step up, or an established Cover Supervisor looking for greater stability.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Supervise classes across KS3 and KS4
  • Provide cover across a range of secondary subjects
  • Deliver work that has been prepared by the class teacher
  • Maintain excellent classroom behaviour and clear expectations
  • Ensure students remain engaged and complete the work set
  • Manage challenging behaviour confidently and consistently
  • Follow the school''s behaviour and safeguarding policies
  • Provide feedback to teaching staff following lessons
  • Build positive relationships with pupils and staff across the school

Ideal Candidate Will Have:

  • Excellent behaviour and classroom management skills - essential
  • Previous experience working with secondary aged students
  • Confidence leading a full classroom independently
  • Experience across KS3 and KS4
  • Ability to quickly establish boundaries and expectations
  • Strong communication and organisational skills
  • Previous experience as a Cover Supervisor, HLTA or Teacher would be highly advantageous

Particularly Suitable For:

  • Qualified Teachers looking to move away from planning, marking and full teaching responsibilities
  • Experienced HLTAs looking to step up into whole class cover
  • Existing Cover Supervisors seeking a long term, consistent placement
  • Education professionals with strong secondary classroom and behaviour management experience

Why Work with Long Term Futures

  • Up to -145 per day
  • Long term, stable position
  • Weekly pay
  • No lesson planning or marking requirements
  • Experience across multiple KS3 and KS4 subjects
  • Free behaviour management and safeguarding CPD
  • Potential progression into teaching or wider school roles
  • Dedicated consultant support

If you have excellent behaviour management skills and are confident taking responsibility for a secondary classroom, apply today for immediate consideration.
