Primary Teachers required for Burnley, Nelson & Colne schools

We are actively looking to recruit a number of high calibre teachers in order to work within a number of Primary Schools across the East Lancashire area. Predominately the work is pre-booked to cover courses, release time & PPA, with the majority of schools falling within the Burnley, Nelson, Barnoldswick & Colne areas.

Why choose us? Teaching Personnel are one the leading supply agencies within the country and have over 80 branches nationwide. We have established relationships with over 300 schools, colleges and nurseries throughout Lancashire - all managed from our Preston branch.

At Teaching Personnel we deserve our reputation as the friendliest and most caring team around. Many of our candidates who join us are recommended to do so by our existing supply staff - and we think that says it all. Just look at recent feedback from some of our supply teachers:

'I came here when I left my permanent teaching post. Genuinely, it was the best decision I have ever made. I didn't need to join another agency, whenever I wanted to work, I was out. The staff put the individual first and ensure that your needs are met. Thank you Steve, Howard and Chloe for being amazing. They found me my dream job and I am the happiest I've ever been.
Join this agency'.

'I have been with Teaching Personnel Preston for some years now - having previously tried other agencies. They have been outstanding - in my view this is the best agency. Their friendly support has been consistently impressive - with regular contact to see how I am doing. I have also found courses that they run for members very useful. I would recommend Teaching Personnel without hesitation'.

'I joined TP through a recommendation of a colleague and had a position immediately after joining. Howard and the Preston team are friendly, helpful and I would not hesitate in recommending them for support with teaching appointments. The enrolment process was quick and easy and I keep in contact with the team weekly to put in place work that suits me and my availability'.
