classroom supervisor

Educator in charge

A classroom supervisor oversees students in a school setting, typically when the regular teacher is absent or unavailable.

The role focuses on maintaining order and ensuring students stay on task rather than delivering instruction.

The classroom supervisor handed out worksheets while the teacher was at a training session.

The term sometimes applies to aides who assist with behavioral management or administrative duties.
