Great teachers don't just deliver lessons they spark curiosity, inspire confidence and help pupils discover the world around them.

TeacherActive are looking for passionate, reliable and adaptable Science Teachers to work across our growing network of Secondary Schools throughout Liverpool, and Merseyside.

We work closely with Secondary Schools across Merseyside, providing everything from day-to-day cover to longer-term placements, with opportunities that could lead to permanent employment.

What could supply teaching look like for you?

It might mean choosing the days you want to work and enjoying the variety of different schools.

It could mean finding a regular school where you become part of the team, delivering engaging Science lessons and helping pupils develop their curiosity, confidence and understanding.

Or it could be the first step towards finding your next permanent teaching position.

The important thing is that we'll listen to what you're looking for and try to find work that genuinely suits you.

We're looking for individuals who:

• Have strong classroom and behaviour management skills
• Are adaptable, reliable and professional
• Can support pupils of varying abilities and create a positive, safe learning environment
• Put children at the heart of everything they do

Both ECTs and experienced Science Teachers are warmly encouraged to apply.

We welcome applications from Science Teachers with specialisms in Biology, Chemistry or Physics, as well as those confident delivering General Science across the Secondary curriculum.
