We are seeking to appoint a new Part Time Cover Supervisor to join our existing Cover Supervisor Team from 3 September 2024, subject to the necessary employment checks and any notice period required. The successful applicant will deliver pre-planned learning materials to pupils in the classroom, covering for absent colleagues. Cover Supervisors are responsible for management of classroom behaviour during these periods. They are not responsible for planning, assessment and marking of pupil work.

The successful applicant will work for 24 hours per week, 6 hours per day, working from 8.45am - 3.45pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays, with an unpaid morning and lunch break, covering up to 5 one hour lessons per day.
The school's values of Trust, Kindness and Determination underpin all we do. Our pupils enjoy their learning in a disruption free environment, and staff are proud to work here. Following our Ofsted inspection in January 2023, Cirencester Deer Park School continues to be a good school. Inspectors noted that:
“Pupils welcome leaders’ high expectations of their behaviour and conduct… Pupils enjoy their learning and feel well prepared for the future.”
“Pupils behave well in lessons and benefit from learning without low-level disruption from others.”
“Staff are proud to work at the school. They feel well supported by leaders in respect of workload, well-being and managing pupils’ behaviour.”
