We work closely with welcoming primary schools across Bristol who are looking for fully qualified Reception and EYFS teachers to lead the classroom with confidence, consistency, and care.
These schools need teachers who can step in, take ownership of learning, and provide strong, reassuring leadership for young learners. You’ll be trusted to set the tone, maintain routines, and deliver high-quality teaching that keeps children settled, curious, and progressing.
You’ll be leading learning in Early Years settings, delivering engaging lessons rooted in the EYFS framework. From early phonics and number sense to social development and classroom culture, your role is central to shaping children’s first experiences of school, while keeping the joy and creativity of Early Years firmly alive.
Placements are matched to your experience and preferences, in schools that genuinely value qualified teachers and see supply staff as an integral part of their team.
