Early Career Teacher - Bury

We are currently supporting a number of primary, secondary and SEN schools across Bury who are keen to work with Early Career Teachers starting from September. This is an excellent opportunity for ECTs who are looking to secure a long‑term role or gain valuable experience through supply work in a range of local schools.

Whether you are seeking a full‑time post, a part‑time position or flexible day‑to‑day supply while you find the right fit, we can support you in finding placements that suit your career goals.

ECTs will have the opportunity to work across a variety of school settings, developing classroom confidence and refining their teaching practice. Long‑term roles may lead to permanent opportunities, while supply teaching allows you to experience different schools, year groups and teaching styles.
You will be supported throughout your placements, with access to advice and guidance from experienced education consultants.

- Newly qualified or qualifying Early Career Teachers

- Trainee teachers looking to gain additional classroom experience

The ideal candidate will be:
- Passionate about teaching and working with young people
