I have never heard the term used before. From my research, in grade school it seems to mean some sort of substitute or temporary teacher. That isn't the impression I get for preschool. Does anyone know?

  1. A supply teacher is a teacher who substitutes for the regular teacher who is away on sick/holiday/personal leave. Generally they are "supplied" by a recruitment agency who specialize in placing staff into preschools/schools/child care centres whether it be on day to day basis or for a contract or even permanent position.

    It is a term more familiarly associated with schools, but is being embraced more and more in the preschool sector as well.


  2. A supply teacher is a teacher that is brought in when the teacher is ill

  3. A supply teacher is a qualified teacher who teaches when the fulltime teacher is away (sick/conference/etc).
