Do you have experience of working with large groups of teenagers such as sports coaching, charity, youth work, as a cover supervisor or drama workshops for example? Are you a recent graduate looking to make a difference in the classroom as a Cover Supervisor ? If the answer is yes to any of these questions then 'Cover Supervisor' work with Randstad Education could be for you!

On behalf of a secondary school in Sefton we are looking for a Cover Supervisor who can work on a day-to-day ad hoc basis, but this could lead to something more long-term in future for the right Cover Supervisor. On most days the work is a full school day, but you may cover just for mornings or afternoons, or even one lesson; the work can be very flexible to suit your availability. The requirement is due to an expected increase in the need for day to day cover within this mainstream setting, covering absent teachers due to training courses, meetings or sickness.
Roles vary from ad-hoc daily cover to longer term positions, although this could lead to something more long-term in future, dependent upon the schools need. The successful candidate would need to be available to start as soon as possible.
