Primary Supply Teacher – Flexible Work Across Sussex

Teach. Inspire. Choose Your Schedule.

Are you a qualified teacher looking for flexibility, variety and the opportunity to do what you love without the pressures of planning, meetings and endless paperwork?

• Deliver engaging lessons across EYFS, KS1 and KS2
• Follow school planning and adapt to different classroom environments
• Create a positive and productive learning atmosphere
• Manage behaviour effectively and maintain high expectations
