This work can be undertaken flexibly, working as often or as infrequently as you wish, aligning with your availability.

  • Possess QTS, QTLS, or another recognised teaching qualification, entitling you to teach in the United Kingdom.
  • Be reliable and dependable, with the ability to accept supply bookings from 7 am in the morning with confidence of arriving at schools in a timely manner.
  • Possess strong behavioural and classroom management skills.
     
  • Be flexible and adaptable, willing and able to think on your feet.
  • Demonstrate patience, empathy, composure, and diligence; to help with building and maintaining an optimal and safe learning environment for vulnerable pupils.
  • Possess a recent, enhanced copy of a DBS – or be willing to obtain one from Principal Education.
  • Possess an overseas police clearance from any country that you have resided in for six months or more within the last five years, outside of the United Kingdom.

  • Be based in a London borough, or within commutable distance.

Pay rates for work as a supply teacher in our secondary schools typically range from £180 – £215 per day. NOTE: There will be scope to discuss increasing your daily pay rate, upon receipt of consistently positive feedback from our partner schools regarding your performance.
