Demand For Teachers and Teaching Assistants at Summer Camps in England

The summer holidays offered a welcome break, but now summer is slowly coming to an end and teachers have a bright new year to look forward to.

However, these long school holidays are not for everybody and, with everyone facing the cost-of-living crisis, the chance to make some extra cash during the summer, mid-term and winter breaks.

Simply Active is an initiative from education recruitment specialists Simply Education, providing fully compliant staff for a variety of summer camps, holiday clubs and more. In 2021, Simply Active started to work with camps across England which needed help with staff during Easter, Summer, and half-terms, providing emergency and planned cover for qualified and unqualified staff in many areas.

We know our candidates well and we supply summer camps and holiday clubs with top-quality fully compliant staff. Throughout 2021 we placed a variety of specialist candidates in roles within activity and holiday camps, such as:

• Activity Instructor • Early Years Instructor • Early Years Manager • Camp Manager • Specialist Instructor (Lifeguard) • Specialist Instructor (Trampoline Coach) • Senior Activity Instructor (Roamer) • Ultimate Tech Instructor • Camp Leaders (Specific).

The feedback we’ve had is that our candidates’ summer breaks have been greatly enhanced by taking part in holiday activities as well as the benefit of extra income.
