Cover Supervisor - Step Into the Classroom, Shape the Future
Location: London
Contract: Full-time | Long-term
Salary: Competitive | Based on experience
Start Date: ASAP
Are you confident leading a classroom and passionate about supporting young people?
Whether you're a graduate exploring a career in teaching, or an experienced educator looking for a new opportunity, this Cover Supervisor role could be the perfect next step.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Supervise lessons across a range of subjects and year groups in a vibrant secondary school environment
Deliver pre-prepared lessons and ensure students remain engaged and focused
Manage behaviour in line with school policies, promoting respect and a calm learning atmosphere
Support students with their learning, encouraging participation and resilience
Provide feedback to teaching staff on student engagement and behaviour during cover lessons
Step up when needed – from mentoring small groups to supporting with intervention and enrichment sessions
Requirements
Who We’re Looking For:
Graduates in Education, Psychology, English, Maths, Science, Humanities or related fields
Confident communicators with the presence to lead a classroom – teaching experience not required!
Flexible, reliable, and calm under pressure
Passionate about working with young people and making a positive impact on their education
Experience in a school, youth work, tutoring or coaching environment is a bonus (but not essential)
Willing to learn – full training and ongoing CPD provided
Why This Role Stands Out:
Perfect stepping stone for those considering teacher training or careers in education
Build real classroom experience with the support of experienced staff and leadership teams
Progression routes available – from Cover Supervisor to HLTA, subject specialist or teacher
Be part of a supportive, inclusive school community where your contribution is valued
Work in a dynamic London secondary school where no two days are the same
Benefits
You don’t need to be a qualified teacher to lead a class.
If you’re passionate, proactive, and ready to step into a role that builds confidence and skills – for you and your students – we’d love to hear from you.
Apply today and take your first step into teaching in London.
