Cover Supervisor - SEND Provision - Luton
Location: Luton, Bedfordshire
Pay: £125 per day
Contract: Full-time, Monday-Friday
Setting: Secondary SEND Provision
Luma Education Recruitment is currently recruiting for a Cover Supervisor to join a welcoming and supportive secondary school in Luton, working within its SEND provision.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Cover Supervisor, Teaching Assistant or education professional who would like to develop their experience supporting pupils with special educational needs and additional learning needs.
The school offers a positive and supportive environment, with a strong focus on relationships, individual needs and pupil wellbeing. Working with smaller groups and a more personalised approach to learning, the role would suit someone looking to move away from the demands of a busy mainstream classroom.
About The Role
As a Cover Supervisor, you will deliver pre-planned lessons and activities in the absence of the class teacher, while providing a calm, structured and supportive learning environment.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
