Cover supervisor

If you’re a fluent Welsh speaker looking to make a real difference in local schools, we’d love to hear from you.
TeacherActive is working closely with several welcoming and supportive Secondary Schools across Merthyr Tydfil, and we’re looking for enthusiastic people to join us as Cover Supervisors.

This role is perfect if you enjoy working with young people, want flexible work, or are thinking about a future career in teaching. And if you can speak Welsh confidently, you’ll be a huge asset to the schools we support.

What the job involves

You won’t need to plan lessons — you’ll simply step into classrooms when teachers are away, help keep things running smoothly, and encourage pupils to stay engaged and on task. Your positive presence can make a massive difference to their day.

What we’re looking for

• Someone who speaks Welsh fluently and enjoys using it
• CACHE Level 2/3 or 6 months experience working with young people
• Confidence managing a classroom of pupils aged 11–16
• A calm, friendly and adaptable approach
• Someone happy to work across different subjects and year groups

What you’ll get from us

• A supportive consultant who’s always on hand to help
• Access to our Guaranteed Payment Scheme (T&Cs apply)
• Free CPD training to help you grow and progress
• Great rates of pay
• Up to £100 when you refer someone you know (T&Cs apply)
• PAYE payment — simple, clear, and no hidden admin fees
