Clyst Vale is a thriving and vibrant 11- 16 Community College situated five miles from Exeter. Visitors to Clyst Vale usually comment on the friendly, orderly atmosphere, the courtesy of our students, and the purposefulness in lessons. We have clear expectations and systems, but far more important are the excellent working relationships we establish between staff and students, as well as staff and parents. We remain the only Secondary school in Devon to be accredited Gold Rights Respecting School status.
The Role
Starting as soon as possible, we are seeking a dedicated, highly organised and efficient Senior Cover Supervisor to join our school.
In addition to undertaking the role of a Cover Supervisor, the role of the Senior Cover Supervisor is to also manage our team of Cover Supervisors.

You will also support and brief supply teachers, ensuring they are provided with cover work and help to resolve any issues they may encounter.
When not required for cover, you will support with Emergency Call Out and after school detentions.
This role would be ideal for a teacher who is maybe looking to step back from teaching but wants to still play a fundamental role in supporting students. Potential candidates must have experience of working in a school, preferably secondary, and have experience of cover supervision or equivalent classroom experience.
We can offer
- A unique opportunity to work within a Rights Respecting School with a strong community ethos
