Summary

Every coach knows that sport is about more than skills. It's about teamwork, growth, and resilience. In Basingstoke classrooms, you can take those same principles and use them to change lives.

Quokka Education is looking for sports coaches who want flexible daytime work as Cover Supervisors. It's the perfect role for anyone who thrives on leadership, adaptability, and motivating groups. We'll give you the training you need, and you'll bring your natural authority and empathetic and warm-hearted approach.
- Day 1-30: Just like the first few training sessions with a new team, you'll use these early days to set the standard. You'll walk into classrooms with confidence, keep lessons running with pre-prepared materials, and quickly earn respect.
- Day 31-60: Your adaptability will shine through. Whether it's Year 7 maths or Year 10 history, you'll keep classes calm, focused, and engaged. Teachers will begin asking for you by name, recognising the impact you bring.
- Day 61-90: By the end of your first term, you'll have become a familiar figure across Basingstoke schools. Students will trust you, staff will rely on you, and you'll be known for consistency, professionalism, and care.

As a coach, you already:
- Motivate people when they're struggling.
- Maintain authority while staying approachable.
- Adapt to new challenges every single session.

These are the exact qualities schools need in a Cover Supervisor.
- Sports coaches from all backgrounds - football, rugby, athletics, martial arts, you name it.
- People who want to take the next step in their career.
- Aspiring teachers who want classroom experience.
- Empathetic and warm-hearted individuals who enjoy working with young people.
- Flexibility to fit around your lifestyle.
- Weekly pay from £120/day PAYE.
- Free training and CPD opportunities.
- Long-term or short-term placements to suit you.
- Location: Basingstoke
- Pay: £120 - £130 per day



You've helped players grow. Now it's time to help students succeed. Apply now and use your skills to build brighter futures in Basingstoke classrooms.
