Job description

Teaching Assistants, LSAs & Cover Supervisors | Guaranteed PAYE Rates | South Wales

You are the backbone of the classroom. You support, you nurture, you keep the day on track. But when it comes to pay, are you getting the transparency and fairness you deserve?

Let's change that.

Equal Education Partners is launching a fresh start in South Wales. Our new, dedicated team is building a community of support staff across Cardiff, Newport, the Vale, and Bridgend - and we’re doing things differently.

Our Commitment to You: Pay You Can Trust. No Excuses.

We believe the most important staff deserve the most security.

• We are Framework Approved: As an NPS Framework agency, we guarantee your pay rate will be fair and in line with or above national standards. No more guesswork.
• We BAN Umbrella Companies: You will never be asked to use an umbrella company. This means no hidden charges, no employer NI deductions from your rate, and no nasty surprises.
• We Pay 100% PAYE: From your very first timesheet, you are paid PAYE. Your payslip is simple, clear, and transparent, and you accrue your holiday pay properly.

Why Join Us Now? Our new team is building its community from the ground up. This means we have time for you. We want to know which schools you love, what year groups you’re passionate about, and whether you want 1 day or 5 days a week. You won't be just a number; you'll be our partner.

Siariad Cymraeg? You are gold dust. We are working closely with Welsh-medium schools (Ysgolion Cymraeg) who are searching for passionate staff to support learning yn Gymraeg.

Don’t just register with another agency. Join a partner who guarantees fair, transparent pay from day one.

• Experience working with children or young people (in a school, care, sports, or personal setting is ideal).
• Registration with the Education Workforce Council (EWC) (or be willing to apply).
• An enhanced DBS check on the update service (or be willing toS apply).
• A positive, resilient, and flexible attitude.
• (For Cover Supervisors) Confidence in managing a classroom and strong communication skills.

Benefits of working with Equal Education:

• Guaranteed Framework Pay: As an NPS Framework agency, we guarantee your pay rate is fair, transparent, and meets national standards.
• 100% PAYE: We ban umbrella companies. You get a simple, clear payslip with properly accrued holiday pay and no hidden fees.
• You Are Our Priority: Our new team is building its community from scratch. We have time for you and will champion your needs to find you the right school.
• Flexible Work: Tell us what you want. We offer everything from day-to-day flexible cover to long-term and permanent placements.
• Career Support: We value your skills and will find you an environment where you can thrive, including access to roles in Welsh-medium schools
