Job description

Are you an actor currently looking for work? Have you ever worked with children before? Would you be interested in helping the next generation of pupils achieve their dreams? Then let Step Teachers help.

Step Teachers is looking for actors, with previous experience working with children, to work as teaching assistants and Cover Supervisors within mainstream Primary and Secondary schools, as well as in SEND schools, working with pupils with special needs.

You may have a background in TIE or other performances for children. You may have run workshops or worked in drama schools that have children attend. Or you may have been a coach of a children’s sports team. Whatever your experience with children, as long as we can get it referenced then we can help!

Our schools provide training on-site, and we provide free CPD sessions that can help develop your knowledge and understanding. If you are considering teaching as an option in the future, this is a fantastic opportunity to see if it is for you!

What you must have:

  • A positive, can-do attitude
  • A willingness to learn
  • A passion for helping pupils whatever their backgrounds
  • A real sense of fun

We work with many schools that have worked with actors before and I appreciate that there may be times you need to go for auditions. You can keep us up to date with the Updatedge app so you have the flexibility to attend auditions. 

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment.

Step Teachers are also an agency listed as an approved supplier on the Crown Commercial Service.  This is a new framework for schools to use, ensuring they have access to reputable agencies that meet certain safeguarding and recruitment guidelines.  The DfE are heavily marketing this service across schools and we would strongly suggest making sure you are registered with a CCS approved agency moving forwards.  Registering with Step Teachers ensures you are working for a trusted partner of the DfE.
