Are you searching for supply teaching jobs? Many teachers choose to take on supply teaching roles at some point in their teaching career, as it gives a brief respite from full time teaching or fits around other commitments. If you are based in the Kettering or Northamptonshire areas and you want to give supply teaching a go, then there are lots of opportunities for you. You just need to know where to look, how to go about conducting your search and how to apply for the supply teaching jobs you want.

The first part of the application process is looking for a job that interests you. In the age of the internet, this task is made a lot easier. Many schools will advertise their positions online, on central databases where you can find all the teaching jobs that are local to you. These will often include full time positions as well as supply teaching positions, both short term and long term. You can then select from the positions that are relevant to you, so the ones that are primary or secondary, in a convenient location in Kettering, that pay the right money and that are in schools you would like to work in.

The other option is to search with a recruitment company that specialises in supply teaching. This can be a much easier process for you, as they will help you to find the positions that are relevant to you straight away. You can also find jobs that are in the right location by searching on their databases, or asking your recruitment consultant to narrow down the search for you. You will also get good levels of customer service, and should work with one individual recruiter who will help you with the process. A good recruitment agency will also be well known amongst schools, so you will get access to some of the best jobs this way.

When you have found the supply teaching jobs that interest you, then you are ready to start the application. If you are applying directly to the school, they will expect a certain format of application, often a form that will need to be filled in. If you are applying through a recruitment agency, the process might differ. The good thing about this is that the recruitment agency will be able to support you in your application. They will know the school on a personal level, so they will know exactly what they are looking for in a supply teacher. They can identify if you have the right skillset to apply, meaning you will be more likely to get an interview if you are well matched to the position in the first place. They will also support you in putting your application together, offering you advice and checking it over before it goes to the school.

As a teacher, there is no clear cut line about what does and doesn’t make a good teaching job. There will be jobs that suit your interests, teaching abilities and personality, and this will be different in every single teacher. This makes it hard to say that there is such a thing as a good teaching job – it is much more a case of there being teaching jobs that will suit you. When searching for teaching jobs, you need to know what to look out for if you are going to find the roles that will work best for you.

Step 1: Deciding on your non negotiable job aspects 

For every teacher, there will be one compromise that is a compromise too far. In order to find the right job for you, it is important to have a clear idea of what will be too much of a compromise for you. You can also look at it the other way around, and decide on the things that are the absolute essentials for any new job role. It could be that you just could not imagine yourself working in Peterborough city, as you are much more interested in working in a small village school. Perhaps you want a promotion, and you won’t accept a new role unless it is going to challenge you. Maybe you want to work part time, and will only accept flexible work as a supply teacher. Whatever it is that is important to you, be clear on it in your own mind. This will really help streamline your job search.

Step 2: Begin looking for job roles 

If you are interesting in supply teaching in Peterborough, then you will be able to find work all year round. As a permanent teacher, you will need to look at certain times of the year. You can look online, and you can also register with teaching recruitment agencies. These are specialist agencies that recruit for teaching positions, so they will have lots of job roles that are suitable for you. You will usually be assigned a specialist recruitment professional who will manage the process for you, so as they get to know your needs, they can pick out the jobs that most closely match with your requirements.

Step 3: Shortlist roles and begin applying 

If you want to find the right role, make sure you don’t rush the process. The perfect teaching job won’t appear overnight – it might, but that would be incredibly lucky if it did. If you work with an agency, they will be able to submit your CV on your behalf to see if the school is interested in you, which will also make the application process much quicker. If you are successful at this stage, then schools will begin to invite you for interviews and you will get to spend a day there, giving you a good idea of whether you like the school and the atmosphere. Soon, you will get to know schools well in the Peterborough area, and you will know where you want to teach.

We had an issue with the website over the last couple of days, and lost all of our articles. We’ve managed to get about half of them back by getting them from google’s cache, but the other half is gone for good, unfortunately.
