Current opening! Secondary STEM Cover Teacher – Norwich

Are you a passionate STEM Teacher looking for flexible work in and around Norwich? Whether you are an experienced educator, an Early Career Teacher (ECT) looking to build confidence and experience, or a teacher returning to the profession, we would love to hear from you. We are currently recruiting enthusiastic and adaptable STEM Teachers to work across a variety of secondary schools throughout Norwich and the surrounding areas, with opportunities available for an immediate start and ongoing work throughout the academic year. This role offers a mixture of day-to-day supply assignments and longer-term block bookings, providing the perfect balance of flexibility and consistency. As a STEM Teacher, you will have the opportunity to teach across Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics subjects, depending on your specialism, experience and the needs of our partner schools. Assignments can range from single-day cover to several weeks or even term-long placements, allowing you to gain valuable experience in a variety of educational settings while maintaining control over your work schedule. Working as a supply STEM Teacher offers a fantastic opportunity to broaden your teaching experience and develop your classroom practice across different schools, age groups and student cohorts. You will be able to experience a wide range of school cultures, teaching environments and departmental structures, helping you build a versatile skill set that will strengthen your future career prospects. For those seeking longer-term or permanent positions, supply teaching is an excellent pathway to securing these opportunities, with many schools using temporary placements as a way of identifying talented teachers for future appointments. This is particularly beneficial for ECTs who are keen to gain exposure to different school environments before deciding on the type of setting in which they would like to establish their long-term career. Throughout your placements, you will be responsible for delivering engaging and effective lessons, maintaining positive classroom behaviour, promoting student progress and ensuring a safe and supportive learning environment. You will have access to lesson plans and resources for many assignments, although there may also be opportunities to utilise your own teaching style, creativity and subject knowledge to inspire learners and make STEM subjects accessible and enjoyable. Strong communication skills, adaptability and a genuine passion for education will be key to succeeding in this role. This position offers an outstanding networking opportunity for both newly qualified and experienced teachers alike. By working across a range of schools in Norwich and the surrounding areas, you will develop professional relationships with senior leaders, department heads and fellow teaching staff. These connections can often lead to further long-term placements, permanent vacancies and valuable career development opportunities. For ECTs in particular, this exposure can provide invaluable insight into different teaching approaches, behaviour management strategies and curriculum delivery methods, helping to accelerate professional growth and confidence within the classroom. We are looking for individuals who hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or are working towards achieving it, although we are also keen to hear from ECTs who are eager to gain experience across multiple school settings. Candidates should possess strong subject knowledge within one or more STEM disciplines, be adaptable to different teaching environments, and have a positive and proactive approach to education. Excellent classroom management skills, a commitment to safeguarding and a passion for helping young people achieve their potential are essential. In return, we offer competitive rates of pay, flexible working arrangements to suit your availability, a wide variety of assignments across local secondary schools, and ongoing support from a dedicated education recruitment consultant who understands the local market. Whether you are looking for occasional supply work, regular weekly bookings, or a route into a long-term or permanent teaching role, we can help you find opportunities that match your career aspirations. This is an exciting chance to make a real impact across schools in the Norwich area while developing your own professional experience and expanding your career opportunities within education. If you are ready to start your next teaching opportunity and would like to enjoy the flexibility, variety and career progression that supply teaching can offer, apply today to join our growing team of STEM Teachers supporting secondary schools across Norwich and the surrounding areas. With immediate opportunities available and work continuing throughout the academic year, there has never been a better time to take the next step in your teaching career.
