Job Title: Cover Supervisor – English Specialist
Location: Leicestershire
Contract Type: Full-time / Part-time / Flexible (Term-Time Only)
Salary: £110 - £135.50 per day (Dependent on experience and qualifications)
Are you passionate about education and confident in managing a classroom? Do you have a strong background in English Literature/Language, and want to make a difference in Secondary schools across Leicestershire?
Link3 Recruitment is seeking reliable, enthusiastic Cover Supervisors with a qualification/experience in English Literature/Language to support a number ofSsecondary schools across the Leicestershire area.
We are particularly interested in individuals who have a strong academic background in English Literature/Language, and a genuine passion for the subject. The ideal candidate will be confident in delivering pre-set English lessons, inspiring students through their deep knowledge of literary texts, themes, and historical contexts. A true enthusiast for English, you will foster a love for reading, critical thinking, and expressive writing in the classroom. Your ability to engage students with rich literary content and encourage thoughtful discussion will play a key role in maintaining high standards of learning and behaviour during teacher absences.
This is an excellent opportunity for individuals seeking classroom experience—especially those considering a future in teaching or wishing to support instruction without taking on full planning and preparation responsibilities

* Deliver pre-set English lessons while upholding high standards of behaviour and encouraging active participation
* Support students with tasks and contribute to a positive, inclusive atmosphere
* Provide clear and constructive feedback to teaching staff on lesson outcomes and student engagement
* Promote literacy and a love for English through enthusiastic lesson delivery and academic support
Requirements:
* A strong academic background in English (Degree or equivalent)
* Have some understanding across all keystages up to GCSE's and A'Levels
* Previous experience working with young people (e.g., in education, youth work, or tutoring)
* Confident classroom presence and the ability to manage behaviour effectively
* Flexible, adaptable, and committed to supporting students’ learning
* Enhanced DBS (or willingness to obtain one) and eligibility to work in the UK
We Offer:
* Competitive daily rates and flexible working options
* Opportunities for professional development and teacher training pathways
* A supportive and welcoming school/trust network across Leicestershire
* Dedicated consultant and team
* Applicants will be subject to pre-employment checks and should hold current DBS check registered to the update service.
