School Cover & Behaviour Supervisor

Description:

Cover Supervisor – Salisbury & Surrounding Areas

Are you a confident, calm and authoritative professional looking for a new challenge in education?

We are looking for a Cover Supervisor to work in secondary schools across Salisbury and the surrounding areas.

This role would suit someone with a strong presence, excellent communication skills and the confidence to take control of a classroom. You don't necessarily need previous experience in education; We're particularly interested in professionals who have developed discipline, leadership and people-management skills in demanding environments.

This could be an excellent opportunity for someone with a background in the military, police, prison service, security, emergency services, youth work or other structured and disciplined environments.

The Role

As a Cover Supervisor, you will be responsible for maintaining a positive, calm and purposeful learning environment when regular teaching staff are unavailable.

You'll need to be someone who can walk into a classroom and command respect without raising your voice, setting clear expectations, managing behaviour and ensuring students remain focused and engaged with the work provided.

We're Looking For Someone Who:

Has a confident and authoritative classroom presence
Can build positive relationships with young people while maintaining clear boundaries
Is calm and composed when dealing with challenging behaviour
Communicates clearly and confidently
Has strong discipline, organisation and leadership skills
Can take responsibility and make sound decisions independently
Is professional, reliable and resilient
Can adapt quickly to different schools, classrooms and situations
Takes pride in setting high standards and expectations
Teaching experience isn't essential. What matters is your ability to lead, communicate, manage behaviour and create a structured environment where students can learn.

If you're an ex-service professional, former prison officer, police officer, security professional, sports coach, youth worker or simply someone who knows how to manage a room and bring out the best in others, we'd love to hear from you.
