• I am looking for a slightly more relaxed teaching role from Easter/September

About working with TP:

• The first agency to furlough all eligible supply staff, before the government scheme was released

• Payroll is weekly, which means you’re paid every Friday. This is all done through PAYE, meaning you will not be charged for any admin costs and all National Insurance/Tax is deducted for you.

• Offering unlimited, accredited CPD opportunities throughout lockdown (and always!)

• Recommend a Friend Bonus (GBP50)

• Regular communication with your team of consultants in the Northants Secondary Branch via Telephone, Video Call, Email or Social Media – we are also on Linkedin and Facebook!

• We take all of your preferences into account when pairing you up with bookings i.e. Primary, Secondary specialisms and any subjects/age groups you would prefer to teach or have had experience with already.

What do rates of pay look like for Supply Teachers with Teaching Personnel?

Day to day supply is typically between GBP115-GBP130 per day, dependent upon experience. For longer term positions, this is negotiated with yourself and the school but would generally be paid to scale (proof required).

 What would a typical day as a Supply Teacher look like?

First and foremost, your consultant would contact you to arrange the booking on the morning or evening before (typically between 7am-8am on the morning). They would send over a booking confirmation via email, to confirm all of the details i.e. School Address, Name of School Contact, Pay Rate, what you should take with you and any other information you’d require such as Subject/Class information. When arriving at the school, you would need to present your DBS certificate registered to the Update Service (we can support you with an application if you require this) and a form of ID before being introduced to your contact and being shown around the school/to the class. All planning/work is provided and you would take it from there!
