If you've noticed that a school has disappeared from your ‘My Schools’ list, it may be because the school has removed you from their list. There are a few common reasons why this might happen. While it can be surprising, it’s often part of a school’s normal process for managing their casual teacher lists.

This article is here to help you understand why this might have happened and, more importantly, share tips on how to strengthen your connections with schools and avoid this from happening again in the future.

Why Did This Happen?

  • Schools’ Discretion: ClassCover allows schools to manage their own list of casuals. Schools regularly review and update their lists based on their needs, preferences, and how often they’ve booked certain casuals.

  • Cleaning the List: It’s common for schools to remove casuals who haven’t been booked recently, have an inactive profile, or are no longer needed. This isn’t always a reflection on you – it’s simply part of how schools manage their lists.

What to Do if You Believe You Were Removed in Error

If you think you’ve been removed by mistake and would like to be added back to the school’s list:

  1. Contact the School: Reach out directly to the school and enquire about being re-added to their list.

  2. Ask for a Re-invite: Politely ask the school if they could re-invite you to join their list.

How to Stay Connected with Schools

It’s always a good idea to maintain a strong relationship with the schools you want to work with. Being responsive, keeping your availability updated, and presenting yourself professionally can help schools keep you on their list.

If a school has removed you, it doesn’t always mean it’s permanent. You can try reconnecting by sending a join request through the Find New Schools feature (if the school has enabled this option).

Tips to Improve Your Chances of Staying on School Lists

  • Keep your profile looking its best with a professional photo, up-to-date qualifications, and a strong bio. Here’s how to make your ClassCover profile stand out.

  • Building great relationships with schools goes a long way. Simple things like being reliable, responding to booking requests quickly, and maintaining open communication can make a huge difference. Check out our guide on how to build strong relationships with schools.
