Job Description

Are you looking to take ownership of your schedule and work as and when suits you? Do you want to achieve a positive work life balance whilst doing the job you love? Look no further - Tradewind are here to help!

Tradewind are currently recruiting enthusiastic, motivated teachers who are keen to make a strong impact and positive impression in our fantastic schools in Tameside.

We are looking for passionate teachers to undertake a variety of roles including day-day, short-term and long-term opportunities in our wonderful schools in Denton, Hyde and Ashton-under-lyne. These roles vary between whole class teaching and intervention-based roles across Early Years, KS1 and KS2.

Our schools differ significantly from rural schools to inner city schools and provide a fantastic opportunity to teach in a range of educational settings and build a portfolio of experience delivering the curriculum to different year groups.

Whether you are an NQT/ECT or a teacher with more experience, I am particularly interested in speaking with teachers who have experience in the primary setting or are looking to transition from Secondary and are keen to make an outstanding impression. This is an ideal time to experience teaching across different settings and establish where you'll be happy in securing the perfect role for you!

  • Qualified Teacher Status
  • A knowledge and understanding of the Primary National Curriculum
  • Teaching experience with excellent references to support your experience
