Cover Supervisor – Amesbury & 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 Amesbury 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.

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.
