Looking for flexibility without giving up the classroom?

Are you a Primary Teacher looking for a better work-life balance?

Perhaps you''re looking for a few days a week, want to keep your options open, are returning to teaching, or simply don''t want the pressure of planning, marking and endless meetings every day.

Academics are currently recruiting Primary Supply Teachers to work across Thurrock and the surrounding areas, with opportunities available immediately.

Whether you''re an experienced teacher, an ECT, returning to the profession or looking for flexible work alongside other commitments, we''d love to hear from you.

Why Supply Teaching?

Supply teaching gives you the opportunity to take back control of your working week.

You can choose when and where you work, while gaining experience across a range of fantastic local primary schools.

  • -130160 per day, depending on experience and role
  • Flexible working - choose the days you want to work
  • Local primary schools across Thurrock
  • Day-to-day, short-term and long-term opportunities
  • No planning or marking for day-to-day supply
  • Opportunities to experience different schools and year groups
  • A dedicated consultant who actually knows you and your preferences
  • Regular work for reliable and committed teachers
  • Potential opportunities for permanent positions

What We''re Looking For

  • Qualified Primary Teachers or ECTs
  • Confident teaching across EYFS, KS1 and/or KS2
  • Passionate about education and children''s learning
  • Confident with classroom and behaviour management
  • Adaptable and able to quickly settle into different school environments
  • Able to build positive relationships with pupils and staff
  • Committed to creating a safe, engaging and inclusive learning environment

If you''re enthusiastic, adaptable and passionate about making a difference, we want to hear from you.

From One Day to Your Next Long-Term Role

Not sure whether supply is right for you?

That''s exactly why it''s worth trying.

You could start with a couple of days of supply and, if you find a school you love, we can help you explore long-term or permanent opportunities there.

Equally, if you''re happy working day-to-day and keeping your flexibility, we''ll work around you.

At Academics, we don''t believe in treating teachers like a number.

As a specialist Primary Recruitment Consultant, I''ll take the time to understand what you''re looking for - the year groups you enjoy, the areas you''re happy to travel to and the type of schools where you work best.

You tell me when you''re available. I''ll do the rest.

If you''re a Primary Teacher looking for flexibility, great local schools and a consultant who genuinely has your back, get in touch today.

Salary will be determined by the successful candidate''s qualifications and relevant experience, and will be in accordance with the client''s pay policy.
