If you are a primary school teacher in the Leighton Buzzard are and would be interested in a PPA Cover role from April until the end of the academic year then this could be the role for you.

Here at academics I am looking to connect a dedicated primary teacher with the warm and friendly lower school in central Leighton Buzzard. The school is a community school and aims to work closely together with all of the parents and carers; with the collective aim of ensuring that their children receive the best outcomes.

Reasons why PPA Cover is a great role:

• Regular Hours: Typically, PPA cover jobs follow the school schedule and you therefore will have a predictable workweek, supporting a stable but flexible role.
• Good work life balance: Because the role is often centred around specific periods this can allow for more balanced work hours that a permanent member of staff might not have
• Less administrative burden: the focus of this role is delivering lessons that have already been planned by the teacher therefore, no grading or creating lesson plans.
• Diverse Exposure: Opportunity to cover different year groups and subjects
• Build relationships: you can still form relationships with students as you interact with them regularly.

Requirements to be a PPA Cover Teacher:

• Must have a QTS
• Must have a DBS or be willing to apply for one
• Have a love for learning and nurturing the minds of young students
• Be a team player and work collaboratively with other members of staff
• Be able to commute to Leighton Buzzard .
