  • Experience teaching or covering in secondary education.

  • A confident, adaptable, and professional approach to teaching.

  • Strong classroom management and communication skills.

  • A driving licence and access to transport are highly desirable, as public transport links in Tenterden are limited.

  • All candidates must complete full vetting and safeguarding checks before placement.


What We Offer


  • Competitive daily rates of pay.

  • Flexible work options to suit your availability.

  • Opportunities for both day-to-day supply and long-term placements.
