If you're looking to increase your booking opportunities as a casual teacher or support staff, you’re in the right place. Instead of waiting for schools to find you, you can be proactive! Using Find New Schools helps you discover schools in your area and send them a request to join their casual list.

Grab the ClassCover Teacher Starter Pack for screenshots, tips, and extra detail.


How ‘Find New Schools’ Can Help You Book More Work

  • Reach out to schools directly: Search for schools that match your preferences and request to join their list.

  • View school profiles: Check details like student numbers, contact info, and an overview before sending a request.

  • Increase your chances of work: The more school lists you're on, the more opportunities you'll receive.


How to Use 'Find New Schools' to Request to Join

You can use Find New Schools on both the app and desktop version of ClassCover.

On the App or Desktop:

  1. Log in to your ClassCover account.

  2. Select ‘Find New Schools’ under the Schools tab.

  3. Use the filters to narrow your search (see below for filter options).

  4. When you find a school you’d like to connect with, tap Request to Join.

Once your request is sent, the school will review your profile. If accepted, you’ll be added to their list of casuals and become eligible for booking requests.


Filter Options When Searching for Schools

When using Find New Schools, you can filter your search by:

  • School Name: Search for a specific school.

  • Distance to Postcode: Find schools near a particular postcode.

  • School Level: Filter by Early Childhood, Primary, Secondary, Special, or All.

  • School Type: Choose from Catholic, Government, Private, Special, Education Company, or All.


Tips to Improve Your Chances of Being Accepted

Schools review your profile before accepting your join request, so it’s important to make sure yours is looking its best.

Important: Schools must have the ‘Receive Teacher Requests’ feature turned on to receive join requests. If you can’t find a school, it likely means they’ve chosen not to accept requests.
