There is a high demand for reliable and motivated teachers to work with schools for day-to-day and short-term appointments. This could be the perfect role for someone looking to take a step back from full-class responsibilities or someone looking to work part-time. If you find yourself without a position come January and would like to work in some great schools across the region, then please get in touch. Your new role In this role, you will be responsible for covering the KS1 classes. In day-to-day roles, these lessons will be pre-planned, so it is all about making sure they are delivered in an engaging and exciting way to the pupils. You should have good knowledge of phonics in order to help pupils progress under your supervision. If you do secure a short or long-term role, then you will be expected to plan lessons based on pupil ability, so it is important you can come in and hit the ground running in any school. Day-to-day supply is a great way to have a work/life balance and is a perfect opportunity to explore various primary schools to find one that suits you.

What you'll need to succeed In order to be successful in securing this position, hold qualified teacher status (QTS) gained in the UK. You will need to be able to manage groups of children and be able to manage challenging behaviour.
