SEMH Cover Supervisor
At Tradewind Recruitment, we believe every young person deserves a chance to thrive, no matter their background or challenges. We work closely with a network of specialist and alternative provisions across Bristol, connecting caring, resilient and adaptable people with opportunities to make a real impact every single day.
We're currently looking for a dedicated SEMH Cover Supervisor to work across multiple specialist settings in Bristol. This is an exciting and varied role where no two days are the same - you'll be supporting young people with social, emotional and mental health needs, helping them re-engage with learning in a safe, supportive and structured environment.
The young people you'll be supporting have often faced barriers to learning due to social, emotional and mental health needs. Many have experienced trauma, disrupted education or difficulties with emotional regulation. They may display challenging behaviour, struggle to trust adults, or find traditional classroom environments overwhelming. With patience, empathy and consistency, you'll help them feel safe, build confidence and rediscover a sense of achievement and belonging.
As an SEMH Cover Supervisor, you'll:
Step into classrooms to provide continuity of learning when teachers are absent
Build strong, trusting relationships with students
Promote positive behaviour and emotional regulation
Adapt lessons and approaches to meet individual needs
Work closely with teaching and pastoral staff to support each learner's progress
