Flexible Supply Teacher

Durham & Sunderland, Secondary, September 2026 Start

Teaching Personnel is recruiting Supply Teachers across Durham and Sunderland for a September 2026 start.

Supply teaching is an increasingly popular choice for experienced teachers who want to remain in the classroom without the workload that comes with a permanent post. No planning to take home, no marking pile building up over the weekend.

If you're already working through an agency but feel like you're not getting the support, the schools, or the rates you deserve, it might be time for a change.

Teaching Personnel works with a wide network of secondary schools across Durham and Sunderland. Whether you're looking to try new schools in the new year, switch things up after a frustrating experience elsewhere, or simply find an agency that actually invests in its educators, we'd like to hear from you.

With consistent demand across both areas and a Guaranteed Work Scheme available for those who want financial stability alongside flexibility, Teaching Personnel offers reliability and transparency

What the role involves:

  • Delivering pre-prepared lessons across a range of subjects at KS3 to KS4
  • Managing classroom behaviour effectively across a variety of school settings
  • Keeping students engaged and on task in a teacher's absence
  • Following individual school procedures and providing brief handover feedback
  • Adapting confidently to different schools and year groups

To be considered:

  • QTS or equivalent
  • Experience teaching in UK secondary schools
  • Confident classroom management skills
  • Flexibility to work across different schools when required
  • Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to obtain one)

What Teaching Personnel offers:

  • £130-£170 per day depending on experience
  • Weekly pay via PAYE (NO UMBRELLA COMPANIES)
  • Full control over your working pattern - full-time, part-time, or ad hoc
  • Guaranteed Work Scheme for financial stability
  • Free CPD and ongoing professional development
