Job Description

Are you looking to fill some spare time with some cover work in schools? Join our successful supply cohort to be given access to the genera cover assignments we have for schools within the South Tyneside local authority.

About the School and Role

We're looking for a candidate who has experience within the classroom or a similar setting who is able to lead set lessons and ensure that student learning continues when their usual teacher is absent. This role is perfect for teachers looking to take a step back from contracted teaching, move towards retirement or take up other work elsewhere but keep their foot in the door of teaching.

The schools we work with within the local area are able to facilitate hard working general cover teachers to offer them a helping hand in making sure their students always have access to high quality education. The schools in question are able to offer information on safeguarding systems and behaviour management systems to make sure that general cover teachers feel as integrated into the school as their own contracted staff.

Requirements

The desired General Cover Teacher will have;

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
• Have strong communication, literacy and numeracy skills
• Eligible to work in the UK (must have valid visa)
• Background in teaching or similar sector
• Valid DBS/police checks

As a Teacher, part of our team, you benefit from:

• Excellent daily rates paid using the PAYE system.

• Guaranteed pay scheme (subject to availability).
• Social and networking events.
• Pension contributions.
• CPD to help with your professional development.

• Access to a dedicated consultant.

We are a market-leading education supply agency committed to the development of young people. With branches across the country, we are an employer of choice for high quality educators.

We do not discriminate on the grounds of age, gender, race, colour, religion, disability or sexual orientation, and we welcome applications from all sections of the community.
