John Taylor Multi Academy Trust (JTMAT) believes in the power of education to improve lives – and the world. As a partner academy in JTMAT, we are seeking to appoint a hardworking, committed and enthusiastic Cover Supervisor to join our evolving organisation.

If you are looking for a dynamic and exciting role within education and enjoy supporting students to meet their aspirational targets, or you are looking at a stepping-stone into teaching or mentoring, then this could be the role for you. We are able to offer this fantastic role due to internal professional opportunities.

What will you be doing? You will be supervising classes during the short-term absence of their teacher, assisting students with their set work and activities to ensure they remain focused and on track. This role is diverse with the opportunity to develop new skills throughout the school.
What do you need? Good numeracy/literacy skills equivalent to GCSE grade C and above and excellent communication skills. Experience within education preferred but not essential as full training will be given.

John Taylor High School’s whole school vision is underpinned by the four core values chosen by our school community; RESPECT, KINDNESS, INTEGRITY and PERSEVERANCE.

If you have a passion for excellence and share our vision, we can offer you the opportunity to be part of a successful and progressive Trust, which is committed to ensuring learning is at the heart of all we do.
