Looking for flexible English teaching in a great school?Protocol Education is in partnership with ahigh-performing academy in BS6 that regularly welcomes supply teachers through us. They’re looking for English teachers who want flexibility, whether that’s a couple of days a week or something closer to full-time.
Many teachers start by doing day-to-day cover, getting to know the school and the team. From there, longer-term opportunities often come up either in the academy itself or in nearby schools we work with. When that happens, the roles are paid to scale.
For day-to-day work, the lessons are already planned, so your focus is simply on delivering the lesson and keeping the class moving forward.
What a typical day looks like
You’ll be delivering pre-planned English lessons across KS3 and KS4, stepping into classes and keeping learning on track.
That usually involve:
* Teaching the lesson set by the department
* Supporting students with reading, writing and discussion
* Keeping the classroom calm, focused and productive
* Helping pupils understand key texts and concepts
* Collecting work and passing feedback back to the teacher
It’s a good fit for teachers who enjoy being in the classroom but want flexibility around workload and schedule.
Who this role suits
We’re keen to hear from:
* English ECTs looking to build experience across strong local schools
* Qualified English teachers who want flexible work
* Teachers returning to the classroom who want to ease back in
* Experienced teachers who prefer teaching without the full-time commitment
You’ll need:
* UK QTS (or working towards it, undertaking a PGCE)
* Strong knowledge of the secondary English curriculum
* Confident classroom management
* A calm, professional presence with students
Training and development
When you work with Protocol Education, you’ll also have free access to our CPD academy. Teachers often use it to build skills that schools really value, including:
* Behaviour management strategies
* Team Teach de-escalation training
* The Thrive Approach, which helps teachers understand behaviour through a relational lens
