Keep Education has been supplying dedicated, trained teaching staff across Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and surrounding areas since 2002. The team is able to draw on a wealth of experience of working education recruitment. A teacher cannot enter Keep Education’s database without being fully vetted and interviewed by one of our highly experienced education consultants. The agency is also a member of the Recruitment & Employment Confederation, exceeding relevant standards. Supply teachers are issued with strict guidelines to ensure both they and the school get the most out of every placement. Teachers should:
Teach where possible, rather than simply supervise
Use their placement within the school to show how a fresh start with a new member of staff can offer students new opportunities
Integrate themselves as much as possible within the school, learning names and establishing a rapport with staff and pupils alike
In addition all teachers are required to meet strict standards of quality. Teachers must:
Stay fully up-to-date on National Curriculum issues and their subject specialism
Teach their classes or supervise effectively, as required by the school
Prepare lessons within the work schedules laid down by the school or teach ready-prepared lessons
Have relevant and appropriate materials available for use on emergency bookings in the primary sector
Mark any written work that has been completed by primary classes before leaving at the end of each day
Mark work in secondary schools (except single day placements)
Maintain a professional standard of dress
Behave in a professional manner, abiding at all times by school standards and policies
Provide break/playground cover where they are replacing a colleague who was scheduled for that duty
Carry out any reasonable requests made by the school
