Secondary Supply Teachers & Cover Supervisors

I'm building my pool of Secondary Supply Teachers and Cover Supervisors for schools across Brighton and the surrounding areas.

And I want to be clear about what I'm offering.

This is predominantly day-to-day supply.

Some weeks can be busy. Some can be quieter. Some bookings arrive several days in advance, while others land on my desk the same morning.

That's the nature of supply, and I'd rather be upfront about it from the beginning.

In return, you get something that's increasingly difficult to find in education: genuine control over your working week.

You don't have to offer five days.

You don't even have to offer three.

If you're reliably available every Monday, that's useful to me.

If you want Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday but never Friday, that's fine too.

I care much more about reliable availability than maximum availability.

The only thing I ask is that we communicate properly. If you've told me you're free and something changes, let me know. If your availability changes from week to week, that's fine too-just keep me updated.

This is worth knowing before you register.

Schools can start contacting me from around 6:30am, sometimes even earlier, when staff call in sick.

If you've told me you're available that day, I may therefore be calling you from around 6:30am onwards with a same-day booking.

Not every job works like that. Plenty of cover is pre-booked.

But if you want to make the most of day-to-day supply, being responsive in those early mornings makes a huge difference.

If you hold QTS or an appropriate equivalent, I'm looking for teachers across a range of secondary subjects for general and subject-specific cover.

Supply can be a great option if you're stepping away from permanent teaching, returning to the classroom, semi-retired or simply want more control over your timetable.

You don't need QTS to be a Cover Supervisor.

You'll supervise work already prepared by the school, manage the classroom and keep pupils on task during teacher absence.

I'm interested in experienced Cover Supervisors, but also people from backgrounds such as:

• Sports coaching
• Youth work
• Tutoring
• Mentoring
• Graduate roles involving young people
