What can a supply teacher expect in Peterborough?

Peterborough has a large number of primary and secondary schools, many within a short drive or bus ride of each other, so supply teachers can often find regular work close to home. Schools in surrounding towns such as Stamford, Market Deeping, Whittlesey, Oundle and Spalding also use our supply teachers.

Day-to-day supply suits teachers who want flexibility, while long-term supply, covering maternity leave or vacancies, gives more continuity and the chance to get to know a class. Many of our long-term placements lead to permanent offers.

We get to know you, your subjects and how far you want to travel, so we can offer work that fits. Supply teachers are paid weekly, and long-term assignments aim to pay to scale from day one.

Key Responsibilities

  • Teach lessons left by class or subject teachers, or plan your own on longer assignments
  • Manage behaviour positively and keep learning on track
  • Follow each school's policies, routines and safeguarding procedures
  • Mark work and leave clear notes for the regular teacher
  • Take on planning, assessment and reporting on long-term assignments
  • Build good relationships with staff and pupils

Who we're looking for

  • Qualified primary and secondary teachers (QTS or QTLS)
  • Early Career Teachers (ECTs) looking for their first post or induction placement
  • Experienced teachers returning to the profession or looking for flexible supply work
