Location: Devon
Pay: £125 per day
Contract: Full-time, Monday-Friday
Setting: Secondary SEND Provision
Luma Education Recruitment is currently recruiting for a Cover Supervisor to join a welcoming and supportive secondary school in Devon, working within its SEND provision.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Cover Supervisor, Teaching Assistant or education professional who would like to develop their experience supporting pupils with special educational needs and additional learning needs.
The school offers a positive and supportive environment, with a strong focus on relationships, individual needs and pupil wellbeing. With smaller groups and a more personalised approach to learning, this could be an ideal opportunity for someone looking for a rewarding alternative to a busy mainstream classroom.
As a Cover Supervisor, you will deliver pre-planned lessons and activities in the absence of the class teacher, while providing a calm, structured and supportive learning environment.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Delivering pre-planned lessons and activities
- Supporting secondary-age pupils with SEND
- Working with smaller groups and individual pupils
- Managing behaviour positively and consistently
- Building strong relationships with pupils
- Supporting engagement, confidence and progress
- Following lesson plans and adapting activities where appropriate
- Working closely with teachers and support staff
- £125 per day
- Full-time, Monday-Friday during school hours
- Secondary SEND provision
- Welcoming and supportive school environment
- Smaller groups and a more personalised approach to learning
- Opportunity to develop valuable SEND experience
- Strong support from the wider education team
- Temp-to-perm opportunities may be available
We would like to hear from experienced Cover Supervisors, Teaching Assistants and education professionals who are confident working with young people.
Previous SEND experience is advantageous, but candidates with strong mainstream experience who are keen to develop within specialist education are also encouraged to apply.
You'll ideally be:
- Experienced working with children or young people
- Confident managing behaviour
- Patient, calm and adaptable
- Comfortable supporting pupils with additional needs
- Able to follow lesson plans independently
- A reliable and positive team player
The school is keen to meet suitable candidates, with site visits currently being arranged.
