Are you a passionate Primary Teacher looking for your next opportunity?
Whether you’re looking for flexible day-to-day supply, a part-time role, a long-term placement or your next permanent position, Classroom Recruiters can help.
We work with primary schools across Derby and the surrounding areas, including multiple academy trusts, MATs and independent schools, giving teachers access to a wide range of opportunities.
Whether you’re an experienced teacher, an ECT taking your first steps into the profession, or simply looking for a role that better fits around your lifestyle, we work around what matters to you.
At Classroom Recruiters, we know that amazing teachers are at the heart of every successful school. That’s why we don’t treat teachers like numbers on a database.
We take the time to understand your experience, preferences and career goals, so we can find opportunities that genuinely work for you.
The Teachers We’re Looking For
We’re always keen to hear from passionate and dedicated Primary Teachers, including EYFS Teachers who are passionate about creating engaging, nurturing and play-based learning environments.
We’re also looking for KS1 Teachers who know how to inspire and engage younger learners, as well as KS2 Teachers who can motivate and challenge pupils, including those with SATs experience.
We welcome ECTs who are looking for their first teaching placement or wanting to gain experience across different schools.
We also work with PPA Teachers who enjoy working across different classes and year groups, Intervention Teachers who can provide targeted support and help pupils make progress, and SATs Specialists who can deliver effective booster sessions and help pupils achieve their potential.
Experienced teachers who are able to support and guide Early Career Teachers as ECT Mentors are also encouraged to get in touch.
We’re always keen to hear from Experienced Supply Teachers too, whether you enjoy the variety of day-to-day supply or are looking for your next long-term opportunity.
If you don’t see your particular experience listed above, please still get in touch. We work with schools looking for teachers across all primary year groups and specialisms.
Work That Works For You
We understand that every teacher is looking for something different.
Perhaps you want the freedom to choose when you work. Maybe you’re looking for a stable long-term placement. Or perhaps you’re ready to take the next step and find your permanent school.
Whatever you’re looking for, we can help.
Flexible Day-to-Day Supply
Day-to-day supply is perfect if you want maximum flexibility and control over your working week. You can choose the days you want to work, fit teaching around your existing commitments and gain experience in different schools.
There’s also no planning, marking or parent evenings, with local opportunities available across Derby and the surrounding areas.
Long-Term Opportunities
If you’re looking for more consistency without committing to a permanent position, we can provide regular work in one school, competitive rates for long-term placements and the opportunity to build strong relationships with staff and pupils.
Long-term placements can also allow you to take on greater classroom responsibility and may provide opportunities to move into permanent positions.
Permanent Positions
Ready to find your next permanent school?
Through our strong relationships with academy trusts, MATs and independent schools across Derby, we can connect you with permanent teaching opportunities that match your experience, ambitions and preferred working environment.
Fantastic Pay That Reflects Your Worth
We believe teachers deserve to be properly recognised for the work they do.
Pay ranges from £130–£225 per day, depending on experience, role and placement. We offer separate day-to-day and long-term rates, competitive rates for long-term opportunities, regular pay reviews and recognition for going the extra mile.
Training & Development
Your development matters to us.
We offer access to ongoing training and CPD opportunities covering areas such as behaviour management, SEND, safeguarding, children's mental health, classroom management, supporting additional needs and professional development for ECTs and experienced teachers.
Whether you’re looking to develop your skills or simply keep your CPD up to date, we’re here to support you.
Rewards & Recognition
We believe great teachers deserve to be recognised.
We regularly celebrate the hard work and commitment of our teachers, with opportunities to receive rewards such as spa days, cinema trips and day experiences.
Because going above and beyond shouldn’t go unnoticed.
