Whilst the Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of supply teachers, it has also spotlighted the growing casualisation of work and the situation for supply teachers, who often have no choice but to obtain work via different supply agencies, leaving them vulnerable to the vagaries of precarious, intermittent and insecure employment.

The NASUWT believes all groups - local authorities, multi-academy trusts (MATs), school clusters, individual schools, school leaders and supply teachers - have a vested interest in doing something different in relation to the procurement of supply teachers following the Covid-19 pandemic.
