Job description
Unqualified TeacherFull Time, Long Term - January 2026 till April 2026 in the Stockport, Greater Manchester SK2 area. Primary School with a nurture room.
Unqualified teachers, often called instructors or cover teachers, deliver lessons without formal Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) for supply roles, covering for absent teachers or working in specialized areas like SEND. This primary school is looking for someone comfortable covering general lessons from Early Years to Year 6.
Who Are They?
* Individuals with subject expertise but no formal teaching qualification.
* Overseas-trained teachers or those on employment-based training.
* Sports coaches or graduates filling gaps.
Where Do They Work?
* Primary and SEND Schools: Stockport SK2 area
* Supply, HLTA & Cover Roles: Filling in for absent qualified teachers (ECTs, etc.).
* Specialist Areas: Often in SEND (Special Educational Needs & Disabilities) support.
What Do They Do?
* Deliver lessons, often pre-planned by qualified staff.
* Support individual student learning and emotional well-being.
* Monitor and assess student progress.
Key Difference from Qualified Teachers (QTS):
* State Schools: Generally, require QTS for permanent classroom teaching.
* Academies/Independents: Can hire skilled individuals without QTS but often have oversight.
Pathways to QTS for Unqualified Teachers:
* Assessment Only Route (AO): For experienced unqualified teachers to gain QTS without further training programs.
* Employment-Based Training: Working while training (e.g., School Direct).
In Summary: Unqualified teachers are vital personnel in education, filling critical roles, but their ability to teach in state schools is restricted compared to those with QTS, though avenues to achieve this status exist. Do get in touch with Aspire People for more information.
