About the Role
Brightstone Education Partners is currently working with a high-performing secondary school in Slough to build a reliable and adaptable Cover Supervisor for ad-hoc and supply work.
This role is to support the school with short-term cover, often due to staff absence. Bookings can be made at short notice, typically between 6:00am – 6:30am for same-day cover.

* Clear expectations and systems in place to support staff.
What We’re Looking For
* Confident individuals who can lead a classroom effectively.
* Strong communication and behaviour management skills.
* Flexible and reliable, with availability for early morning bookings.
* A proactive and professional approach.
* Experience working with young people is desirable (but not essential).
Important to Know

* Work is often offered at short notice (early morning calls).
* Flexibility and reliability are key to securing consistent bookings.
What’s on Offer
* Up to £120 per day.
* Opportunity to gain experience in a well-structured school environment.
* Potential pathway into longer-term or permanent roles.
