North Leamington School, a part of the Elm Tree Multi Academy Trust (ETMAT), are looking to appoint an outstanding Cover Supervisor to join our successful secondary school, providing high-quality classroom supervision and making a positive difference to the learning and wellbeing of our students. This is a great opportunity for an enthusiastic, dedicated person that wants to make a difference to the lives and education of young people. 

Are you thinking of taking up a career in teaching but would like to experience working in a successful school first?  If you are considering a teacher-training course and would like to benefit from a role that enables you to gain paid experience in a student-facing post before fully committing to this career path, this is an ideal opportunity.  Alternatively, you may simply have a passion for supporting the learning and development of children of secondary school age.

Our committed Cover Supervisor Team play an important part in school life, providing complementary service to our Teachers and Pastoral staff within the school, addressing the needs of students, supporting them in overcoming barriers to learning, and enabling them to achieve their full potential.

We are looking for someone with a love of learning and an assertive/confident, but most importantly a positive presence around students. The role provides short-term cover for absent Teachers, supports the Tutor Programme where necessary, mentoring and supporting individual students and providing lunchtime or break supervision when required.

We would love to hear from you if you think this role will suit your skills, knowledge and experience and you have excellent interpersonal skills and a competent level of literacy and numeracy. Previous experience is not necessary, as you will be given a full induction and training programme; however, an understanding of working with children and therefore safeguarding policies is desired.

Please see our application pack including the job description and person specification for full details and requirements with regards to this role and note any offer of employment is subject to receipt of a completed application form, satisfactory references, an enhanced DBS disclosure, online search checks and the right to work in the UK.

What We Offer:

  • A fantastic modern school environment with a strong team culture
  • A very generous pension scheme and access to a range of health and wellbeing services
  • A first-class commitment to developing individuals through personalised CPD programmes
  • An easily accessible location with plentiful onsite parking

Post Deadline: Monday 14 September 2026 at 9:00am

Interviews are expected to take place shortly after the closing date; however, we may interview candidates on application. Therefore, we encourage you to apply at your earliest opportunity. 

Thank you for your interest in our role.
