Relief teaching can be incredibly rewarding — but it can also be one of the most challenging roles in education. From constantly adapting to new environments to managing behaviour, building relationships quickly and handling uncertainty, CRTs are often expected to perform under pressure with very little preparation time.
In this episode, we explore why relief teaching can feel so difficult, the hidden pressures many CRTs experience and the realities of working across different schools, classrooms and student cohorts.
We also discuss strategies for building confidence, developing resilience and recognising the value CRTs bring to schools every day. This episode aims to reassure relief teachers that many of the challenges they face are shared experiences across the profession.
