Are you confident in Maths, Science, ICT, Engineering or another STEM-related subject and interested in working within secondary schools?
Aspire People are looking for enthusiastic and confident STEM Cover Supervisors to support secondary schools across Rhondda Cynon Taf. This is a brilliant opportunity for graduates, aspiring teachers, experienced Cover Supervisors or individuals with a strong STEM background who want to gain further experience within education.
A role that works around you
One of the biggest benefits of this opportunity is flexibility. You can choose the type of work that suits you:

* Build valuable classroom experience before progressing into teacher training or another education-based career
What will you be doing?
As a STEM Cover Supervisor, you will supervise classes during teacher absence, with a particular focus on supporting Maths, Science and other STEM subjects where required.
Your responsibilities may include:
* Delivering pre-prepared lessons and ensuring pupils remain on task
* Supervising classes across KS3 and KS4
* Supporting STEM-based lessons where your knowledge and confidence can add value
* Managing classroom behaviour and maintaining a positive learning environment
* Providing encouragement and guidance to pupils
* Following the school's behaviour, safeguarding and classroom procedures
Who are we looking for?
We would love to hear from you if you have:
* A degree, qualification or strong background in a STEM-related subject
* Experience working with young people, ideally within a secondary school or education setting
* Confidence managing groups of pupils
* Strong communication and interpersonal skills
* A positive, adaptable and professional approach
Previous Cover Supervisor experience is advantageous, but we are also keen to hear from STEM graduates and aspiring teachers looking to build their school-based experience.
