Are you a qualified teacher looking for flexible work without travelling to different areas every day?
TeacherActive is working closely with a supportive and well-established academy trust in Essex that is looking for reliable and enthusiastic
Supply Teachers / Cover Teachers to provide cover across its local schools.
This is a fantastic opportunity for teachers who enjoy the flexibility of supply teaching but would prefer the consistency of working within the same group of schools.
Rather than travelling across Essex, you will be offered work within
one local area allowing you to build strong relationships with staff and pupils while becoming familiar with the schools and their expectations.
Whether you're looking for
2, 3, 4 or 5 days per week, we can offer flexible working opportunities to suit your availability.
What makes this opportunity different?
Flexible working: Choose between 2 and 5 days per week to suit your lifestyle.
Local placements: Work across schools within the same academy trust, all based in one local area.
Consistency: Become familiar with the same schools, pupils and staff rather than constantly moving between unfamiliar settings.
Regular opportunities: Ongoing supply cover available throughout the academic year, depending on school requirements.
Work-life balance: Enjoy the flexibility of supply teaching without the full responsibilities of a permanent classroom position.
Variety: Gain experience across different classes and year groups while remaining within a supportive trust.

Deliver pre-planned lessons and maintain a positive learning environment.
Manage classroom behaviour effectively in line with school policies.
Adapt confidently to different classes, year groups and school environments.
