About the School
Located in the welcoming borough of Barnet, this secondary school is a vibrant and diverse learning community for students aged 11-18. With a strong reputation for academic excellence, high standards of behaviour, and outstanding pastoral care, the school is dedicated to developing students into confident, responsible, and successful individuals.

Staff and students alike benefit from a supportive, community-focused environment where respect, ambition, and personal growth are at the heart of everything they do.

About the Role

The school is seeking to appoint a committed, adaptable, and confident Cover Supervisor to join their dedicated team on a permanent basis. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys working with young people and is considering a career in education. It is particularly suitable for graduates interested in teacher training, experienced school support staff, or individuals with experience in youth work or tutoring.

Key responsibilities include:
* Supervising whole classes in the absence of the regular class teacher, ensuring that students stay engaged and complete the work set.
* Maintaining a calm, focused, and respectful learning environment, managing behaviour in line with school policies.
* Assisting students with questions about their work and encouraging them to achieve their best.
* Providing feedback to teaching staff on student progress, behaviour, and any incidents during cover lessons.
* Supporting departments with administrative tasks and general classroom assistance when cover is not required.
* Playing an active role in the wider life of the school and always promoting its values.

About You
We are looking for candidates who:
* Have experience working with young people in an educational, youth, or similar setting (desirable but not essential).
* Are confident managing classes of secondary-aged students and promoting positive behaviour.
* Have excellent communication, interpersonal, and organisational skills.
* Are flexible, proactive, and able to handle change with a positive attitude.
* Have a genuine interest in education and supporting the progress and wellbeing of students.
* Hold a good standard of education, including GCSEs (or equivalent) in English and Maths.

What the School Offers
* A friendly, supportive, and collaborative working environment.
* Comprehensive training and development opportunities, including pathways to teacher training.
* A convenient Barnet location with good transport links across North and Central London.
* Staff wellbeing programmes and a strong sense of community.
* The chance to have a meaningful impact on young people's lives every day.
