You will have the opportunity to work in a variety of primary schools across Wirral, with positions across EYFS, KS1 and KS2 classes, experiencing new and exciting challenges on a regular basis. You will have access to permanent teaching opportunities for September 2025, and will also have the option of undertaking rewarding long term assignments, where you would get paid an equivalent ECT salary from day one as well as being able to complete terms of your induction. Usually long term assignments will come about through maternity cover, sickness cover and interim cover.

We also have opportunities for short term supply teaching work for the end of the Summer term and September. Supply is an excellent opportunity for Early Career Teacher's to gain paid experience in a variety of different schools and year groups. Many of our ECTs want to gain more experience before securing a permanent role and supply offers exactly this, as well as allowing you the flexibility of working when you want to.

What you'll need to succeed
You will be in the final stages of your 3 or 4 year teaching course with a view to obtaining your QTS in July, or be working towards your PGCE or PGDE, OR an ECT that already has QTS. You will also have determination and flexibility, a positive attitude and the desire to ensure a positive learning experience for the children in your class at all times.

What you'll get in return
You will have access to the widest range of Wirral permanent and long term opportunities, or benefit from working in the largest range of schools available across Wirral on a supply basis, which could lead to long term assignments and future permanent employment.

Supply teaching is a great lifestyle decision and you will receive a competitive daily rate of pay, while getting valuable teaching experience. You will have the flexibility of being able to choose when you can and can't work, while still receiving a viable income.
