Veritas Education is working closely with a number of secondary schools across Huddersfield who are seeking confident, reliable, and motivated Cover Supervisors to support their staffing needs. This role is ideal for aspiring teachers, graduates, or individuals with experience working with young people in an educational or leadership capacity.

As a Cover Supervisor, you will supervise classes during short-term teacher absences, ensuring that students remain on task and engaged with pre-prepared work. You'll play a key role in maintaining a positive learning environment and upholding the school's expectations in line with Department for Education standards.

• Maintain a calm and focused classroom environment
• Manage behaviour effectively in line with school policies

• Professional, punctual, and reliable
• Able to manage behaviour positively and constructively
• Strong communicators with a calm and assertive presence
• Interested in working within education, whether short-term or as a step toward teacher training

Experience working with young people-whether in schools, sports coaching, youth work, mentoring, or similar-is highly desirable but not essential, as full training can be provided.

• Competitive daily rates and weekly pay
• Flexible work to suit your availability
• Opportunities for long-term placements and career progression
• Support from a dedicated consultant specialising in the Kirklees and Wakefield area
