Education Requirements

A high school diploma or equivalent is the minimum requirement to work as a classroom supervisor (substitute teacher) in Manitoba. A Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) is preferred and may qualify candidates for higher pay rates, but it is not required. Due to ongoing teacher shortages, school divisions across Manitoba are actively hiring classroom supervisors who do not hold a B.Ed. degree. Classroom supervisors perform the same day-to-day duties as substitute teachers, including following lesson plans, managing classrooms, and supervising students. Candidates with post-secondary education in any field, relevant work experience with children, or educational assistant credentials may be given preference during the hiring process.

Background Check

A Criminal Record Check including a Vulnerable Sector Search is required before beginning substitute teaching. The check must be recent, typically within the last six months, and is submitted to the hiring school division. A Child Abuse Registry Check through Manitoba Families is also mandatory.

Age Requirements

Applicants must be at least 18 years of age, which is the age of majority in Manitoba. This ensures all substitute teachers are legally able to enter into employment contracts and assume duty-of-care responsibilities for students.

Application Process

Candidates apply directly to individual school divisions in Manitoba to be placed on the classroom supervisor or substitute teacher roster. Most boards accept applications through their online portals or human resources departments. The typical application requires a resume, proof of education (high school diploma or higher), a current Criminal Record Check with Vulnerable Sector Screening, government-issued photo identification, and two to three professional references. Some boards may also require a brief interview or orientation session before adding candidates to their active roster. Processing times vary by board but generally range from two to six weeks.
