Request Teacher Cover

Clear teacher cover begins with the right information.

Whether cover is needed tomorrow morning or planned for a future date, we welcome your enquiry.

Provide the details currently available, including dates, lesson times, location and learner information. We will review the assignment individually before confirming suitable cover.

Give us the facts needed to assess the assignment.

A concise outline of the school, timetable, learners and work required is enough to begin.

Urgent circumstances do not always allow every detail to be known at once. Send the information currently available and identify what remains to be confirmed.

Complete information helps us assess availability, suitability and travel practicalities without unnecessary delay.

Sending an enquiry begins the review process. Cover is confirmed only after Englishire has agreed the assignment.

Answers to common questions about submitting an enquiry.

These answers concern the enquiry itself. The full questions page contains further information about temporary teacher cover.

What if the timetable is not yet final?

Provide the current version and make clear that it remains provisional. Any material change must be reviewed before cover can be confirmed.

May we send supporting documents separately?

Yes. Timetables, lesson plans, school maps and other useful documents may be supplied after the initial enquiry, subject to the communication arrangements provided in our response.

Does sending an enquiry reserve a teacher?

No. Sending an enquiry begins the review process. A teacher is reserved only after Englishire has reviewed and expressly confirmed the assignment.

Can we enquire before the need becomes urgent?

Yes. Advance introductions are welcome and can make a future request easier to assess.

We will review the assignment and explain the next step.

Our response will address any questions, availability and the practical steps required before cover can be confirmed.
