Graduates - Start Your Career in Education!

Job description

Graduates – Start Your Education Career (September 2026)Cover Supervisor/Teaching Assistant roles, £92.63 to £100 per day, perfect for graduates exploring teaching.

Just graduated and considering a career in education? Not sure if you want to commit to a PGCE yet? I'm recruiting graduates of any subject or discipline to work as Cover Supervisors and Teaching Assistants across Durham and Sunderland from September 2026.

This is the perfect way to get paid classroom experience before making long-term decisions. You'll work in secondary schools, support students, gain confidence managing classrooms, and figure out if teaching is genuinely right for you – all while earning competitive daily rates.

What you'll be doing:As a Cover Supervisor, you'll deliver pre-prepared lessons when teachers are absent, manage classroom behaviour, and keep students on task. As a Teaching Assistant, you'll support students in lessons, work 1:1 or with small groups, and help teachers deliver effective learning. Both roles give you genuine insight into education before you commit to teacher training.

You'll need:

A degree in any subject

Confidence working with young people

Good communication skills

Patience and adaptability

Genuine interest in education

Why this works:

£92.63 to £100 per day

Flexible working options (full-time or part-time)

Weekly pay via PAYE

Valuable classroom experience that strengthens PGCE applications

Dedicated support from me as your consultant

Real insight into whether teaching is the right career path for you

I work with plenty of graduates who've used these roles as a stepping stone. Some loved it and went straight into PGCEs with genuine experience already under their belt. Others realised teaching wasn't for them and moved into other careers – which is absolutely fine and exactly what this experience is for.

Contract:Flexible (full-time or part-time)

Start:September 2026

Pay:£92.63 to £100 per day

Location:Durham and Sunderland secondary schools
