Your new company
Christmas is quickly approaching and there are only a few weeks left of term, which means we are now looking towards January and supporting schools with jobs from then. There is always a high demand for supply cover, particularly in KS2, and there is a particularly high demand come January. We are currently seeing an increase in demand for supply teachers and so, with that in mind, we're looking for individuals who are confident in teaching this age range and can come in and hit the ground running. This could be perfect if you only want to work part-time, if you're new to teaching or if you'd like to take a step back from all the full responsibilities as a full-class teacher.
If you are yet to secure a role, then now would be the perfect time to get in touch. We deal with temporary and permanent roles, so if you'd like to know more, please get in touch.
