About the role
Vision for Education would be interested in speaking to qualified Sports Coaches who are looking to use their skills and experiences and transition in to teaching or working in support roles in schools. These skills are perfect for our Cover Teacher role.
As a Cover Teacher, you will be responsible for leading lessons of approximately 30 pupils in the absence of the class teacher. You will cover classes across a full range of secondary school subjects, but don't worry, you are not expected to be a subject specialist in each area. The lesson will always be planned, and this will be provided in advance.
It is your role as the Cover Teacher to facilitate the classes learning, manage classroom behaviour, record accurate registers, and provide a handover to the absent teacher.
Successful Cover Teachers are adaptable, flexible, motivated, confident and organised, they have a passion for education and supporting young people.
