Confident in the classroom? Ready to lead learning? Starting this September.

Your new opportunity

Join a network of inclusive and well-supported secondary schools across the Wigan area, where your classroom experience can make a real impact.

  • Experienced Cover Supervisors with a strong classroom presence.
  • ECTs looking to gain valuable experience across different schools.
  • Qualified teachers seeking flexible work or a route back into teaching.
  • Individuals who have worked in a school setting and understand the demands of the classroom.

    Please note: This role is not suitable for applicants without prior classroom experience, and we do not offer sponsorship for this role. We are also recruiting for multiple candidates.

What you'll need to succeed

  • Strong behaviour management and communication skills.
  • A confident, adaptable, and professional approach.
  • A genuine interest in supporting young people’s education.

What you'll get in return
