At Engage, we're working with a secondary school in East Leeds to recruit a full-time Cover Supervisor to join their dedicated team. This is an excellent opportunity to work in a supportive environment that places a strong focus on maintaining high standards of behaviour and engagement across the school.
About the role
As a Cover Supervisor, you will be leading lessons and supervising classes across a range of subjects in the absence of the class teacher. The school is seeking someone who demonstrates exceptional behaviour management skills and can confidently manage a classroom, ensuring pupils remain focused and on task.
You'll need to be calm, consistent, and assertive, able to implement the school's behaviour policies effectively while building positive relationships with students. The ability to de-escalate situations, set clear expectations, and maintain control in a busy classroom environment is essential.
The school is proud of its inclusive and structured approach, providing clear systems of support for both staff and pupils. You'll receive training and guidance from the school and Engage Education, working as part of a collaborative and welcoming team. This role involves minimal planning and marking, offering a great opportunity to develop your classroom experience in a well-supported setting.
If you're confident managing behaviour, passionate about helping students succeed, and ready to make a real impact in East Leeds, we'd love to hear from you.

If you are an aspiring teacher, or an experienced cover supervisor looking for a position, this opportunity could be ideal for you.
