Drama Cover Supervisor

Location: Waltham Forest, London
Start Date: Immediate / Ongoing
Contract: Full-time or Part-time, Flexible

Love drama, but not the last-minute chaos? We’re looking for a confident and engaging Cover Supervisor to step into the spotlight at a welcoming Post-16 College in Waltham Forest.
The Role
You’ll be leading drama sessions and supervising classes in the absence of the regular teacher. Think of it as directing the performance rather than writing the script—keeping lessons on track, encouraging creativity, and making sure students stay engaged and supported.

Supervising drama lessons and workshops across Post-16 groups
Encouraging participation, collaboration, and confidence in the classroom
Managing behaviour in a calm and positive way
Stepping into other subjects when needed (don’t worry, no expert knowledge required!)
About You
Experience working with young people (schools, clubs, workshops, tutoring, youth groups)
Confident communicator with strong presence in a classroom setting
A passion for drama and the performing arts
Flexible, reliable, and happy to adapt to different classes and situations
