Your School Profile on ClassCover is more than just a basic info page for your school – it’s a chance to showcase your school, make a great first impression and help casuals feel confident about working with you.

A clear and engaging profile helps you attract new applicants, onboard staff efficiently, and build trust with potential casuals who are browsing for schools to work with.


What Casuals Will See (Even Before They're on Your List)

If a casual stumbles upon your school – either through a job ad or the ‘Find New’ feature – they’ll be able to view:

  • Your school logo or crest

  • A link to your school’s website

  • A short overview about your school

  • Key info like school size, type, and principal or contact details

  • Whether you're co-ed or single-sex

  • A map showing exactly where you're located

This helps casuals decide if they’d like to request to join your list or apply for a role with you.


What Your Existing Casuals See

Once someone is on your list, they’ll still see all the info above – plus a few extras that help with onboarding and communication:

  • Announcements: Share key updates or reminders directly on your profile

  • Onboarding documents: Link to anything new staff might need (like a Google Drive folder)

  • Extra notes: Add in any helpful info to make things easier for your casuals

It’s all about keeping your staff in the loop and making onboarding smoother.


How to Complete Your School Profile

Updating your profile is simple and doesn’t take long. Here’s how:

  1. Go to Your School Profile

    Click your School Name at the top of the page, then select ‘School Profile’.

  2. Edit Profile Information

    To edit information in different fields within your profile, look for the pencil icon. This will allow you to make changes to specific sections.

  3. Save Changes

    Don’t forget to click ‘Save’ after making any edits to ensure your changes are updated in the profile.

  4. View Your Profile as a Casual

    Use the ‘View as Teacher’ option to check how your profile looks from a casual’s perspective.

Keep Your List in Shape with the List Health Checker

Alongside a strong profile, keeping your casual list active and up to date makes a big difference. Use the List Health Checker (found under My List in the Manage tab) to:

  • Spot inactive or unavailable casuals

  • Send nudges to those who haven’t updated availability

  • Hide or remove profiles that no longer suit your needs
