Returning to teaching: common questions
Can I return to teaching after a career break?
Yes. QTS does not expire, so if you hold it you can return to primary teaching after maternity leave, a career break or time in another job. Supply is a flexible way back, because you can start with a day or two a week in local schools and build up when you are ready.
Do I have to work five days a week?
No. You can work anything from one to five days a week, and we will talk through which days suit you when we meet.
What does return to teaching supply work pay?
Up to £130 per day, paid weekly via PAYE, inclusive of holiday pay at 12.07%.
