Are you a sports enthusiast interested in working with young people, but not sure how to get into a career in education? We’re partnered with a welcoming secondary school in Central Bristol that’s looking for Female PE Cover Supervisors / Unqualified Supply Teachers. This is a paid role (paid weekly through PAYE) working in schools, in which you don't need experience as we provide all training and ease you in. You just need a passion for sports and fitness, great character, and a desire to work with young people.
The Role
As an Unqualified Supply Teacher, you’ll step in when a teacher is absent. You’re not expected to teach new content. Your role is to lead, guide and manage the classroom. While you will mainly be placed in Physical Education lessons (both in and outdoors), you may also be asked to cover other subjects. This is completely normal - this is a classroom management role, not a subject teaching role, so specialist subject knowledge is not required.
- Deliver pre-set work left by the teacher
- Use your communication skills to explain tasks clearly
- Keep students focused, motivated and on task
- Build positive, professional relationships with pupils
- Adapt confidently to different subjects and classroom environments
