New vacancy! Secondary Early Careers Teacher – Norwich

Are you ready to take the first exciting step in your teaching career this September? We are currently recruiting enthusiastic and ambitious Secondary Early Career Teachers (ECTs) to work across a range of secondary schools, with opportunities available on a day-to-day, short-term and long-term basis. Whether you specialise in English, Mathematics, Science, Humanities, Modern Foreign Languages, PE, Computer Science, ICT, Design Technology, Art, Music, Drama or another secondary subject, we have rewarding opportunities to help you develop your skills and gain valuable classroom experience. Starting your career on supply is a fantastic way to build confidence and discover the type of school where you can truly thrive. Rather than committing immediately to one setting, you’ll have the opportunity to experience different school environments, leadership styles, student communities and teaching approaches, helping you develop into a well-rounded and adaptable educator. Every placement offers the chance to refine your classroom practice, strengthen your behaviour management skills and learn from experienced colleagues across a variety of settings. One of the biggest benefits of supply teaching is the opportunity to build a strong professional network from the very beginning of your career. By working in different schools, you’ll establish relationships with department heads, senior leaders and teaching teams who can support your professional development and open doors to future opportunities. Many schools use supply placements to identify talented teachers for longer-term contracts and permanent vacancies, meaning supply work often becomes the pathway to securing a role that is the perfect fit. We are looking for passionate individuals who hold, or are working towards, Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), have a genuine enthusiasm for teaching and learning, and are eager to make a positive impact on students’ education. In return, we offer competitive rates of pay, flexible working opportunities, dedicated consultant support and access to a wide network of secondary schools. If you’re looking to gain invaluable experience, expand your professional network and create opportunities for long-term career progression, apply today and discover how supply teaching can help launch your teaching career this September.
