Summary

Your new company

With January approaching, Hays Education are looking to speak with primary teachers considering their options for the new term.

We work with a wide range of primary schools across Coventry and regularly support them with both day-to-day cover and longer-term teaching requirements. Whether you're looking for more flexibility, regular work each week or a longer-term position, we can work with you to find roles that suit what you're looking for.

We also receive exclusive opportunities through our partner schools, giving our teachers access to roles that may not be advertised elsewhere.

Your new role

We are looking for qualified primary teachers interested in supply and longer-term teaching opportunities from January.

The type of work you take on can be based around your individual preferences. This could include:

Day-to-day supply teaching

Long-term class teaching roles

Maternity cover

PPA cover

Job-share positions

Part-time or full-time work

Regular work on specific days each week

Opportunities can range from EYFS through to Year 6, and we'll take the time to understand the year groups you enjoy, how far you're happy to travel and the days you want to work.

If you enjoy the variety of different schools, we can focus on day-to-day supply. If you'd prefer to settle into one school for a term or longer, we can look at longer-term roles as they come in for January.
