Are you a qualified English Teacher with strong classroom management skills looking for opportunities across East Birmingham? Aspire People is expanding its network of English specialists to support secondary schools across Small Heath, Bordesley Green, Sparkhill, Yardley and surrounding areas.
We're particularly interested in teachers who can deliver engaging English lessons, establish clear classroom expectations and confidently manage behaviour across KS3 and KS4. Whether you're an experienced English Teacher looking for a change of environment, an ECT building your classroom experience or someone seeking greater flexibility through supply teaching, we'd like to hear from you.
WHAT OPPORTUNITIES ARE WE RECRUITING FOR?
We are building our candidate pool for future daily supply, short-term cover, regular weekly bookings and long-term English teaching requirements across East Birmingham. Depending on school requirements, assignments may involve:
- Delivering English Language and Literature across KS3 and KS4.
- Supporting GCSE examination groups with reading, writing and analytical skills.
- Teaching a range of literary texts, including Shakespeare, poetry, prose and modern drama.
- Developing pupils' literacy, communication and written expression.
- Supporting pupils with different abilities, including those requiring additional literacy support.
- Delivering A Level English where appropriate.
Longer-term positions may involve planning, marking, assessment and contributing to the wider English department. These are prospective opportunities rather than a confirmed vacancy at a specific school.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
You will need QTS or QTLS, strong English subject knowledge and experience delivering lessons within a secondary school environment. Effective behaviour management is particularly important. We are looking for teachers who can establish clear expectations, maintain positive classroom routines and keep pupils engaged throughout lessons. Experience teaching GCSE English Language and Literature would be particularly valuable. You should be adaptable, reliable and confident supporting pupils with different learning needs and levels of attainment. We welcome applications from experienced English Teachers and Early Career Teachers.
