Cover Supervisor Opportunities – Secondary Schools in Reading & Surrounding Areas
Full-Time or Flexible | Immediate & September 2025 Starts
Are you confident working with young people and ready for a rewarding role in education?
Whether you want to explore a long-term career in schools or prefer the flexibility of week-to-week work, Teach and Connect has opportunities for you.
Please note: Cover Supervisor roles are for those without QTS. If you are a qualified teacher, we can also offer Supply Teaching roles where you will be paid at teacher rates.
The Cover Supervisor Role
As a Cover Supervisor, you will:
* Supervise classes when the teacher is absent
* Deliver pre-prepared work (no planning or subject expertise required)
* Manage classroom behaviour and keep lessons on track
* Support students' learning rather than teaching new content
In longer-term placements, you may take on extra responsibilities such as marking or planning – with pay adjusted accordingly.
Who We're Looking For
We'd love to hear from you if you are:
* Confident, adaptable, and proactive
* Experienced in working with young people (education, youth work, coaching, or care)
* Strong in behaviour management and classroom presence
* Reliable, enthusiastic, and ready to get stuck in
Why Join Teach and Connect?
* Opportunities for both full-time consistency and flexible supply work
* Supportive schools with positive, inclusive staff cultures
* A great stepping stone into teaching or a career working with young people
* Local opportunities across Reading, Maidenhead, and surrounding areas
