Job description

Teaching in Lower KS2 is where children really begin to flourish.

In Year 3 and Year 4, pupils develop greater independence, confidence, and curiosity. They're ready to take on new challenges, build key skills, and engage with a broad and exciting curriculum. It's one of the most rewarding stages of primary education.

But we also know that a full-time classroom commitment isn't always the right fit.

Protocol Education is currently seeking enthusiastic and dedicated Year 3 and Year 4 Teachers for a range of long-term, short-term, and day-to-day supply opportunities across primary schools in Midsomer Norton, Radstock, and the surrounding areas.

Regardless of your preference for consistent long-term placements, regular PPA cover or short-term supply work, we'll help you find a role that works around your lifestyle and career goals.

No endless evenings planning lessons.
No mountains of marking.
No additional commitments taking over your personal time.

Just the opportunity to focus on what you do best: inspiring children and delivering great teaching.

Why Work with Protocol Education?

We believe great teachers deserve flexibility, support, and opportunities that suit them.

• Long-term, short-term, and day-to-day teaching opportunities
• Flexible working to suit your availability
• Competitive daily pay rates paid weekly via PAYE
• Opportunities across welcoming primary schools in Midsomer Norton and Radstock
• Potential for long-term and permanent opportunities
• Dedicated consultants who understand primary education
• Free CPD and professional development courses
• Easy-to-use booking and timesheet systems
• £50 referral bonus for recommending fellow educators

The Role

As a Lower KS2 Teacher, you will:

• Deliver engaging and creative lessons across the Year 3 and Year 4 curriculum
• Foster pupils' confidence, independence, and enthusiasm for learning
• Create positive and inclusive classroom environments
• Differentiate learning to support pupils of all abilities, including those with SEND
• Build strong relationships with pupils, school staff, and wider school communities
• Maintain high standards of behaviour and achievement
• Inspire children through exciting and meaningful learning experiences

Whether you're supporting a school for a few days, a full term, or the entire academic year, you'll play a vital role in helping pupils thrive.

About You

We're looking for teachers who:

• Hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
• Have experience teaching within Lower Key Stage 2
• Are confident delivering engaging and effective lessons
• Can adapt their teaching to meet diverse learning needs
• Build positive relationships quickly and professionally
• Are flexible, reliable, and resilient
• Have strong classroom and behaviour management skills
• Are passionate about helping every child achieve their potential

Experience supporting children with SEND, ASD, ADHD, SEMH, or additional learning needs would be highly advantageous.

What We Need to Clear You

To get you registered and ready for work, we'll need:

• A valid passport or proof of your right to work in the UK
• Two proofs of address, such as a driving licence, utility bill, or council tax statement
• A CV covering the last 10 years of work and/or education history, with any gaps explained
• Two years of references, including your most recent school placement where applicable
• An overseas police check if you have lived abroad for 3 months or more within the last 5 years
