Primary Supply Teacher

Love teaching, but not the endless meetings, planning and paperwork?

Whether you're looking for a better work-life balance, want to experience different school environments, or simply enjoy the variety that supply teaching brings, Protocol Education has opportunities waiting for you.

We're working with a number of welcoming primary schools in and around Midsomer Norton that are looking for enthusiastic and reliable Qualified Teachers (QTS) to support their pupils throughout the academic year.

From the excitement of a different classroom every day to securing a longer-term placement where you can really make an impact, we'll help find a role that works around you.
