Are you a committed and enthusiastic Maths teacher looking for a flexible role that works around your lifestyle? We are seeking skilled Supply Maths Teachers to support secondary schools across Cheltenham. While ongoing Maths cover is a key priority, we are also happy to consider teachers from other subject areas who can offer adaptable, high‑quality classroom support.

Many supply placements naturally evolve into long‑term or permanent roles, offering both flexibility and the potential for progression.
