About the role

Cover Supervisor

The Reach Free School is looking to appoint a confident, supportive and adaptable individual to take on the role of Cover Supervisor. The role involves covering lessons for colleagues who are absent from school.

The role would suit:

• A candidate with experience of working in a supportive role in a school environment

• A graduate seeking experience in a school environment prior to embarking on a programme to gain qualified teacher status (QTS).

In return, we will offer you:

• A happy and supportive working environment with high expectations and standards

• A network of outstanding practitioners to collaborate with and learn from, both in school and across the Watford Partnership for Teacher Training

• A comprehensive professional development programme

• Opportunities to progress to a career in teaching via the Schools Direct programme, where viable

The Reach Free School is a successful secondary school which celebrated its tenth anniversary in 2023. The oversubscribed school is a popular choice for local families. The school has excellent modern facilities built in 2018, right in the heart of its community. If the challenges of working in a non-selective secondary school appeal to you, then we would like to hear from you.
