Job Title: Sports Coach / Learning Support
Location: Rotherham
Salary: £460 - £650 per week (depending on experience and qualifications)
Contract Type: Long-term / Temporary, Full-time / Part-time
Start Date: September 2026
Are you looking to use your coaching experience to make a real difference in a school setting? A welcoming school in Rotherham is looking for a dedicated Sports Coach professional to join their team.
About the Role:
This is a school-based classroom support role rather than a sports delivery position. As a Sports Coach / Learning Support, you will use the transferable skills gained through coaching, such as behaviour management, motivation, resilience and teamwork, to support pupils throughout the school day. You will work alongside teachers to provide classroom support, assist with learning activities, supervise lessons when required, and encourage positive behaviour while helping students remain engaged in their education.
About the School:
This inclusive school is committed to providing a supportive learning environment where every pupil is encouraged to reach their potential. Staff work closely together to maintain high expectations, strong pastoral support and positive relationships, ensuring students feel safe, respected and ready to learn.
Responsibilities:
Provide classroom support across a range of lessons and year groups.
Encourage positive behaviour and help pupils remain engaged in learning.
Support students with additional learning or emotional needs where required.
Assist with cover supervision in the absence of the class teacher.
Build positive relationships with students, staff and parents where appropriate.
Help maintain a calm, structured and inclusive learning environment.
Requirements:
Experience in sports coaching, fitness, mentoring or youth work is desirable.
A genuine interest in supporting children and young people within education.
Strong communication and behaviour management skills.
Confidence working with individuals and small groups.
A positive, resilient and adaptable approach.
Previous school-based experience is beneficial but not essential.
If you are ready to make a positive difference and are interested in this opportunity, submit your CV today.
To work with GSL Education as a Sports Coach, you should:
Have the right to work in the UK.
Have an up-to-date CV with two relevant references from within the last two years.
Have an enhanced DBS registered to the Update Service or be willing to apply for one through GSL Education.
Please be advised that this role requires a strong knowledge and understanding of safeguarding and child protection and that successful applicants must satisfy all background safer recruitment checks including providing an enhanced DBS certificate registered on the update service, or completing an application for a new check.
As an ethical, inclusive, and independent recruitment agency GSL Education are committed to providing quality teaching and support staff in schools throughout the local area.
