Cover Supervisor

Saracens High School is a free school that opened in September 2018 for pupils aged 11-18, in the Colindale area of North London, serving the wonderfully diverse Grahame Park community.

This year we began our final year of growth and we are looking for a cover supervisor. Another of our cover supervisors has gone on to become a teacher within the school creating this vacancy, and this is the perfect preparation for that step into teaching or another role within the education sector.

The successful candidate will cover for staff absences by delivering the lessons, and when not required to cover, they will work within an identified subject area, supporting and learning from others, and developing their own pedagogy.

Saracens High School has a family ethos and is committed to supporting staff in this rewarding job, while recognising the stress it puts upon us. With generous teacher loadings, an on-site gym that is free for staff, the opportunity for colleagues to take family days, and access to a staff counsellor, we do all we can to look after our staff.

With strong ties to the wider Saracens organisation, we base all we do on the values Discipline, Hard Work, Honesty, and Humility. Our family ethos focuses on character development and making memories, as much as outstanding academic attainment. Our aim is to develop aspirational life-long learners, who will thrive in their chosen career path, embracing our values, and demonstrating a strong moral purpose and a desire to make a positive contribution to society and their local community.

Our school is a place where a person enters the building and knows this is a school where the learner is empowered to “be the best that they can possibly be”; where the individual abilities of each pupil are recognised, and where coaching for life skills as well as academic excellence is at the core of all we do.

The successful candidates will have relevant experience of working with young people in an educational setting, and will ideally have a knowledge of the local area or similar area. We offer exceptional training and development opportunities and do all we can to support you in this role, and to achieve your aspirations, while you help the children to achieve theirs.

How to apply:

Complete the application form on the TES website. Your supporting statement must be limited to 50 words and explain which of our four values is most important to you.

If you have any questions or would like a general conversation with the Principal about the role, please email [email protected]

The closing date is 17:00 on Monday 23 June 2025

Saracens Multi Academy Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. The successful candidate will be required to complete an Enhanced DBS check.
