They must also be able to relate to and establish an excellent rapport with students.
You will be required to provide effective cover supervision in a range of areas and subjects in response to teacher absence/staff absence ensuring good order is maintained in the classroom and students keep to task. You will also be required to undertake lunchtime/break supervision on days you are not timetabled to cover all periods.
