Applications are invited to join our relief bank to provide teaching support in schools across Shetland. Members of the relief bank will be contacted on an ‘as and when required’ basis to provide cover, for example due to staff absence. All applicants must be resident in Shetland before being cleared to work on the supply list as although we will aim to give as much notice as possible, you may be asked to work at short notice.
Rate of Pay: £23.80 to £34.92 per hour inclusive of Distant Islands Allowance
Applications will be assessed against the criteria in the Person Specification for Teachers (copy attached to the advert). Suitable applicants will be invited to interview and recruitment checks such as references, PVG Scheme membership, General Teaching Council for Scotland Registration, verification of qualifications and proof of eligibility to work in the UK will be carried out before applicants are placed on the relief bank.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
