Engage in school life and uphold safeguarding and behaviour policies
What We're Looking For
Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
Specialism in a core or EBacc subject (English, Maths, Science, Humanities, MFL, or similar)
Experience teaching KS3 and/or KS4
A flexible and professional approach to teaching in varied contexts
Strong classroom management and the ability to build quick rapport with pupils
Commitment to safeguarding and promoting the wellbeing of young people
What We Offer
Full-time, longer-term opportunities with the potential to lead to permanent roles
Access to a range of placements in supportive and well-managed Northamptonshire schools
Opportunity to teach your specialism while contributing across the wider curriculum
Professional development and mentoring if required
Competitive pay rates aligned with teaching scale
