Fully Qualified Year 6 Teacher

Are you a Year 6 teacher who enjoys the challenge and reward of guiding pupils through their final primary year, but would welcome a role with more flexibility? We’re looking for confident and experienced KS2 teachers to support Year 6 classes across local schools through supply and PPA cover opportunities. These roles allow you to focus on what you do best, helping pupils succeed, without the full weight of permanent class responsibilities. Just purposeful teaching, focused learners, and the flexibility to shape your working week.

Year 6 is a year full of growth. Pupils are preparing for SATs, building independence, and getting ready for the big move to secondary school. The right teacher at this stage can have a huge impact, building confidence, resilience, and a sense of achievement before they move on. If you enjoy stepping into a classroom, quickly building rapport, and helping pupils stay motivated during such an important year, supply could be a brilliant fit. Whether you’re looking for regular weekly cover, short-term placements, or flexible day-to-day supply, we’ll help find the right balance for you. Because experienced teachers deserve roles that work around their lives.
