Primary Supply Pool

Primary Supply Teachers

Enfield operates a supply pool open to teachers who have successfully passed their induction period and have a further year's experience in primary teaching. It is used by over 65% of our primary schools, enabling them to cover vacancies in at least 95% of cases.

We are always looking to take on more staff, especially teachers open to teaching Year 6. We offer National Pay Rates and never take a cut from teachers' salaries. The scheme may be of particular interest to teachers whose contracts are coming to an end, or who are currently teaching part-time and would like some additional hours.

The Supply desk is open from 7.30 am to 6.00 pm Monday to Friday. Outside of these hours we operate a voicemail system, which we check daily. If you would like to apply for the pool, please contact Christiana Michael or Luxmi Colleemallay on 020 8379 3386/19, or email teaching@enfield.gov.uk

If you are interested in working as a casual relief teaching assistant, nursery nurse, please contact us for more details.

The rates of pay are:

You will receive a scale 1 pay grade unless you have prior Teaching Assistant experience, in which case a scale 2 pay grade may be considered.

Nursery Nurse

You will be expected to have either a Diploma in Nursery Nursing (NNEB), a BTEC National in Childhood Studies (Nursery Nursing) qualification or an NVQ Level III Standard in Childcare and Education.

In some schools you may also receive a £2 lunch allowance, or alternatively a meal.
