Flexible Classroom Work with Real Purpose
Teach Now is seeking enthusiastic Supply Teaching Assistants for flexible assignments in primary schools throughout Enfield.
This opportunity is ideal for experienced teaching assistants who want to choose when they work, gain experience in different settings or fit school hours around existing commitments. Bookings may include general classroom support, one-to-one SEND assistance, intervention work or additional help during particularly busy periods.
No two days will be identical. You might help Reception pupils settle into morning routines, support phonics in Year 1 or guide a small group through a Year 6 mathematics task.

Working with individuals or groups who need additional explanation
Helping pupils remain focused and involved in learning
Supporting phonics, reading, writing or numeracy activities
Assisting children with SEND in line with school guidance
Preparing resources and maintaining an organised learning environment
Supervising pupils during transitions, breaktimes or lunchtimes
Promoting positive behaviour and respectful relationships
Reporting concerns promptly to the appropriate member of staff
We Are Looking For
Recent experience supporting children in a school, nursery or relevant setting
A good standard of spoken and written English
Confidence working with children of different ages and abilities
Patience, initiative and a positive approach
The ability to follow instructions and adapt to different school systems
Reliable attendance and punctuality
The right to work in the UK
An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to apply
Two appropriate professional references
A Level 2 or Level 3 teaching-assistant qualification is desirable but not always essential where applicants have strong and relevant experience.
Why Choose Flexible Supply?
Select work around your weekly availability
Develop experience across EYFS, KS1, KS2 and SEND
Visit schools before considering a permanent move
Build a stronger education CV
Access both pre-booked and short-notice opportunities
