Teachers TV - A day in the life of a Cover Supervisor

I have talked in previous blogs about the changes in the educational supply teaching markets which are affecting not only Classroom but ALL teaching agencies. The biggest change is of course in the Secondary education market. More and more schools are employing Cover Supervisors over qualified teachers which has in turn affected the amount of supply teaching work open to a lot of qualified Secondary school teachers. To counter this we know a lot of Secondary teachers who are here teaching in the UK are working not only in Primary Schools but are taking interim work as Cover Supervisors. But just what does a Cover Supervisor do? The following video from Teachers TV will hopefully shed some light!


Interesting viewing. So what do people think of this whole Cover Supervisor phenomenon? Good thing or not? As ever your views are always welcomed!

  1. Hmmm... this actually looks like a great job for me. If I didn't already have a full-time gig I loved, I'd be trying to get in on this.
