Location: Kirkby and surrounding areas
Start Date: September 2026
Pay: £120-£190 per day, depending on experience and role
Long-Term Roles: Paid to scale

Spencer Clarke Group is looking to recruit qualified secondary school teachers to work across schools in Kirkby and the surrounding areas from September.

We are primarily looking for teachers interested in day-to-day supply, offering flexibility around your availability and the opportunity to work across a range of local secondary schools. Whether you're looking for regular work throughout the week or occasional days to fit around other commitments, we can work with your availability.

Alongside day-to-day supply, we are also recruiting for a number of long-term, subject-specific teaching roles, with teachers paid to scale from the start of the placement.

The role

As a supply teacher, you will:

Deliver pre-planned lessons across KS3 and KS4

Manage classroom behaviour and maintain a positive learning environment

Follow school policies and procedures

Provide continuity for pupils during teacher absence

Have the flexibility to accept work that suits your availability

What we're looking for

Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent recognised teaching qualification

Experience teaching within a secondary school setting

Strong classroom and behaviour management skills

A professional and reliable approach

An enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to complete the required checks

What's available?

Day-to-day supply: Flexible work across Kirkby and surrounding areas, with rates of £120-£190 per day depending on experience and the role.

Long-term teaching roles: Subject-specific vacancies are also available for teachers looking for greater consistency, with pay to scale for long-term placements.

This could suit experienced teachers looking for more flexibility, ECTs wanting to build experience across different schools, or teachers looking for supply work while considering their next long-term position.

Apply today to discuss the opportunities available from September across Kirkby and the surrounding areas.
