Supply Teaching in Switzerland
"Compass provides short-term teaching cover to a number of Swiss international schools."
Supply Overview
We are currently working with a number of Swiss international schools, mainly in the cantons of Geneva and Vaud who at times require qualified teachers to cover sickness and maternity absences.
Given the expense and time involved in relocating overseas teachers, it is more practical to call on qualified teachers living in the area. In the event of a sickness, maternity or other absence, international schools contact us for suitable teachers living close by.
Although we recruit for permanent vacancies with some Swiss international schools, the competition for such placements can be competitive given the working environment they provide. Therefore teachers currently residing in Switzerland looking for longer term opportunities may improve their chances by 'getting one foot in the door'.
