Aspiring Teachers - Become a Supply Teacher

£100 - £150 per day

Are you considering a future career in teaching? Whether you are planning to undertake a PGCE, Schools Direct programme, or another route into education, gaining classroom experience is one of the best ways to develop your skills and confidence before training.

This opportunity is ideal for graduates, aspiring teachers, career changers, tutors, coaches, youth workers, and other professionals who are passionate about supporting young people and want to gain valuable experience within schools.

The Role

As a Cover Supervisor, you will be responsible for leading lessons in the absence of the class teacher. You will not be required to teach new material. Instead, you will deliver pre-planned work, manage classroom behaviour, and ensure students remain engaged and focused throughout the lesson.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Supervising classes across a range of subjects
  • Delivering pre-set work provided by teaching staff
  • Managing classroom behaviour effectively
  • Supporting students to remain engaged and on task
  • Building positive and professional relationships with pupils and staff
  • Adapting confidently to different school environments

What We Offer

  • Roles in secondary schools across Shrewsbury, Telford and surrounding areas
  • School placements matched to your preferred locations
  • Dedicated support from an experienced education consultant
  • Access to long-term and permanent opportunities
  • Valuable classroom experience to support future teacher training applications
  • Ongoing professional development and training

Who We Are Looking For

We are seeking individuals who are:

  • Interested in pursuing a career in education
  • Confident communicators with strong interpersonal skills
  • Professional, reliable, and adaptable
  • Comfortable working with young people aged 11 to 16
  • Positive role models who can engage and motivate students

Previous experience working with young people, whether through tutoring, coaching, mentoring, youth work, drama, or volunteering, is advantageous but not essential.

Start Your Journey into Teaching

If you are looking to gain practical classroom experience, develop transferable skills, and take the first step towards a career in education, we would welcome your application.

Apply today to join Protocol Education as a Cover Supervisor and begin working in secondary schools across Shropshire.

All applicants will require the appropriate qualifications and training for this role. Please see the FAQs on the Protocol Education website for further details.

All pay rates quoted will be inclusive of 12.07% statutory holiday pay. This advert is for a temporary position. In some cases, the option to make this role permanent may become available at a later date.

Protocol Education is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. We undertake safeguarding checks on all workers in accordance with the DfE statutory guidance ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’, this may also include an online search as part of our due diligence on shortlisted applicants.
