  • A professional approach to working in schools

In return, you can expect:

  • Pay of up to £130 per day, depending on experience
  • Flexible ad-hoc work to suit your availability
  • Potential for regular bookings throughout the academic year
  • Opportunities for work across Sheffield
  • Support from a dedicated education consultant
