Why choose supply teaching: No planning or prep – looking to regain a healthy work life balance? With supply teaching, you finish work at the end of the school day and can go home knowing that all planning is provided for you Exposure to local schools – are you new to the area? Have you worked in the same school for a few years and keen to see how other schools do it? Supply gives you an insight into lots of different schools and their teaching practices, which is helpful when you come to apply for permanent jobs as you know what you do and don’t want from your future school Gain experience – if you are an ECT, supply is a great way to gain valuable teaching experience from lots of different schools, senior leaders and teachers Keep teaching skills up to date – looking for a break from permanent teaching but want to keep your knowledge up to date? Supply teaching gives you the opportunity to focus on your work life balance, while still practising teaching Get back into teaching – had a break from teaching and want to get back into it?

You will be first to know when a permanent role arises and given the opportunity to apply, already knowing that you enjoy the school and your colleagues and pupils.

We are so confident that we will be able to find you appropriate work, that if there are ever any days where we are unable to find you work, you will still be paid in line with your GWS Proven track record of success – we have years of experience as well as well established relationships with schools meaning we are extremely busy and can provide you with supply teaching work on all your available days.

These beliefs and values are underpinned by decades of work and experience that Oasis has had in a wide range of sectors including education, housing and youth-work supported further by a wide range of independent research and studies elsewhere which evidence that creating teams with diverse experience and perspectives, and encouraging healthy debate, reduces the risk of ‘blind spots' that often form barriers to success. Oasis Restore aim is to attract and retain the very best diverse talent and role models to help create an innovative, caring and extraordinary working environment for our staff, that enables us to deliver exceptional, caring and psychologically informed learning experience for our students.

We're also very happy to answer any questions you may have so please don't hesitate to get in touch at . *The Equal Opportunities Form will not be shared with anyone involved in processing your application.
