"Reed Education are pleased to be working with a large number of Secondary Schools across Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire.

"As a trusted name across the UK, Reed Education are specialists in providing work in a variety of different roles within the sector, with our most popular roles for graduates being those of Cover Supervisors or Teaching Assistants."

Could this be the right route for me?

"If you are looking at training as a teacher in the future, experience in the sector can be invaluable in helping you to know you are taking the right step.

"Every school is different, and you will be supported throughout your work with Reed Education by expert consultants who know the schools and will work to help you find the right environment.

"This is particularly popular as a route into a Secondary School, where you can benefit from wider classroom experience to go alongside your specialist subject knowledge.

"Through Reed Education's links with local schools, we will be able to offer you consistent work as a Cover Supervisor enabling you to also build successful relationships and connections at the schools – which can potentially lead to further employment opportunities.

"Reed Education are offering a specialised Training Course over the Easter break to help you to tailor your skills to the role of a Cover Supervisor, helping you to make the right impression in your work."

What do these roles entail?

"Work as a Cover Supervisor is most readily available on a day-to-day basis, giving you flexibility over the hours you work.

"As a Cover Supervisor, you will be responsible for managing the classroom in the absence of the normal teacher. All work is set for you and the main element of your role will be to ensure that pupils remain focused on the work which has been left and to manage behaviour within the classroom. You are not expected to have specialist knowledge of class subject you will be covering.

"As a Teaching Assistant your role would be to support individual or groups of students, whether the need is a behavioural issue or if the individual has special needs.

"Working for Reed Education can provide you with a range of benefits whilst you gain experience, including:

- Weekly pay offered at a competitive rate

- Choice over how you wish to be paid- through an Umbrella company, or through ourselves as a PAYE employee, giving you control of your finances.

- A specialist consultant with 11 years' experience who will deal with you exclusively and provide you with additional support such as CV writing, interview guidance and honest feedback.

- Access to CPD including Safeguarding training, PREVENT and Team Teach.

- Reed Benefits including access to various insurances and discounts.
