  • Support: Assist students with any queries they have regarding the pre-set work.
  • Flexibility: Work across various subjects, from PE and Drama to Maths and Science.
Requirements
  • Education: Degree level preferred, but a strong background in coaching, youth work, or childcare will be considered.
  • Confidence: The ability to command a classroom and communicate effectively with teenagers.
  • Adaptability: A flexible nature to handle the changing needs of a school day.
  • Clearance: An enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to apply for one).
  • Reliability: Schools in Harlow rely on consistent and punctual cover staff.
Benefits
  • Competitive Pay: £110 - £120 per day.
  • Career Development: Gain invaluable experience for future PGCE or School Direct applications.
  • No Out-of-Hours Work: Your day finishes when the school bell rings - no marking or planning.
