Primary Supply Teacher

Bright Star Talent is currently recruiting qualified teachers across Birmingham to join our team for day-to-day supply and PPA cover within local primary schools.

This is a great opportunity for teachers who want flexibility without the commitment of a full-time role. Whether you're looking for a couple of days each week, work around other commitments, or simply prefer the variety of supply teaching, we can offer work on an as-and-when basis to suit your availability.

You tell us the days you're available, and we'll work around you.

As a Day-to-Day Supply / PPA Teacher, you may be required to:

• Provide general classroom cover across EYFS, KS1 or KS2 depending on your experience.

• Deliver pre-planned lessons and ensure pupils remain engaged with their learning.

• Provide PPA cover across different classes and year groups.

• Manage classroom behaviour confidently and positively.

• Follow individual school policies, routines and safeguarding procedures.

• Adapt quickly to different classroom environments.

• Provide feedback to the class teacher or school at the end of the day.

• Create a positive and supportive learning environment for pupils.

To be successful in this role, you will have:

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) – essential.

• Experience teaching within a UK primary school.

• Good classroom and behaviour management skills.

• Confidence working across different year groups where required.

• A reliable, professional and adaptable approach.

• The ability to quickly build positive relationships with pupils and school staff.

• A genuine passion for teaching and supporting children's learning.

This type of work is particularly suited to:

• Teachers looking for part-time or flexible work.

• Teachers who only want to work certain days each week.

• Teachers returning to the classroom who want to ease back into teaching.

• Experienced teachers looking for a better work-life balance.

• Teachers who enjoy working across different schools and year groups.

• Candidates who want as-and-when work without committing to a long-term position.
