However, when last minute absences occur within schools, we will either receive a call during the evening or the morning of the day cover is needed. You can expect a call anytime between 7am and 9am, if the call is in the morning.

You will be paid on the 10th of each calendar month following confirmation of attendance at each school. You will receive a payslip in advance of the pay date and payment is made via BACS.

We then pay all outstanding holiday to you three times throughout the year, for pay periods including school holidays.

You will need to record your availability, via our App, on a weekly basis. If this changes at any point you will need to update your calendar so that we can see your amended availability on the live system.
