Job Description

Not every teacher wants the same thing - and that's exactly why supply teaching works.

Whether you're looking for the freedom of day-to-day supply or the stability of a longer-term role, we're working with Secondary schools across Derby and Derbyshire that need great teachers like you.

No two weeks have to look the same (unless you want them to).

Who is this for?

Honestly? Most teachers.

  • Early Career Teachers building confidence
  • Experienced teachers wanting flexibility
  • Teachers exploring different schools
  • Teachers returning after a break

If you can inspire young people and adapt to new classrooms, we want to hear from you.

Subject specialisms we're recruiting for

We're looking for teachers across all secondary subjects, including:
English, Maths, Science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics), History, Geography, RE, MFL (French, Spanish, German), PE, Art & Design, Music, Drama, Design & Technology, Computing / ICT, Business Studies and more.

What you can expect

  • Work daily supply or long-term placements - your choice
  • Opportunities across a variety of Derbyshire secondary schools
  • Flexibility that fits around your life
  • Support to help you find the right school and role

If you're ready for teaching that works around you - rather than the other way round - this could be the perfect next step.
