Job description

Qualified Primary Supply Teacher – General Cover

Location: Central Lincoln and surrounding areas
Pay: £110–£180 per day | Guaranteed pay may be available
Hours: Day-to-day supply cover, with the potential for longer-term placements.

Please note: Applicants must have the right to work in the UK and hold UK Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Applicants without UK QTS cannot be considered for this position.

About The Role

Connex Education are recruiting for dedicated, enthusiastic and adaptable Qualified Primary Teachers to work across a network of primary schools in Central Lincoln and the surrounding areas.

This is an exciting time to join Connex Education, as we have recently secured a new school trust contract, meaning over 50 primary schools across Lincolnshire are now recruiting exclusively through Connex Education. This has created fantastic opportunities for qualified teachers looking for day-to-day supply work, with the potential to secure longer-term placements as opportunities become available.

Initially, the role will involve day-to-day general supply assignments across multiple primary schools, rather than being based within one specific school. You will have the opportunity to work across different year groups and key stages, providing continuity of learning in the absence of the usual class teacher.

As a Qualified Primary Supply Teacher, you will be responsible for delivering pre-planned lessons, supporting pupils with their learning, managing classroom behaviour and ensuring lessons run smoothly and effectively. You will be expected to maintain high standards of teaching and learning, create a positive and engaging classroom environment and build strong relationships with pupils and school staff.

To be considered for this position, applicants must hold UK Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). We are unable to consider applicants who hold overseas teaching qualifications but do not have UK QTS.

The successful candidate will be confident working across the primary age range, adaptable to different school environments and able to quickly establish positive relationships with pupils and colleagues. You will be organised, approachable and resilient, with the ability to respond to different school expectations, year groups and pupil needs.

Pay rates range from £110 to £180 per day, depending on experience, qualifications and the nature of the assignment.

There may also be opportunities for guaranteed pay arrangements for eligible candidates. These are considered on a case-by-case basis and are subject to meeting specific criteria, which will be discussed and reviewed during the interview process. Guaranteed pay is not automatically available to all candidates.

Whether you are looking to gain regular day-to-day supply work or are interested in progressing into a longer-term placement, this is a fantastic opportunity to access a wide range of primary teaching opportunities through Connex Education.

With over 50 primary schools now recruiting exclusively through us, there has never been a better time to register with Connex Education.

About The Schools

Connex Education works in partnership with a wide network of primary schools across Lincolnshire and the surrounding areas.

We have recently secured a new school trust contract, meaning over 50 primary schools are now recruiting exclusively through Connex Education. This is a significant expansion of our primary school partnerships and provides our teachers with access to an excellent range of supply opportunities.

Rather than being tied to one specific school, you will have the opportunity to work across several different settings, gaining experience with a variety of pupils, teaching teams and school environments.

Many assignments will initially be day-to-day general cover, although there may also be opportunities to develop regular working relationships with schools or move into longer-term placements as they become available.

Our dedicated education recruitment team will work closely with you to understand your experience, availability and preferences, helping to identify suitable opportunities across our partner schools.
