Trainee English Teacher

Could this be the role that takes you from graduate to future English teacher? Want to build classroom confidence in a strong secondary setting before progressing into formal teacher training?

*** £85 - £125 per day initially
*** Temp to Perm
*** State of the Art secondary, Birmingham
*** Opportunity to build confidence and train as a teacher

The Role:
Join the English department in a developmental role designed to help you build classroom confidence and subject experience before teacher training. You will support pupils with reading, writing, analysis, and exam preparation through 1:1 work, small-group intervention, and lesson support, while learning from experienced staff in a live secondary environment. National Careers says secondary teachers work with students aged 11 to 16, or up to 19 in schools with sixth forms.

The Candidate:
You are articulate, organised, and able to explain ideas clearly. You want proper school-based experience, enjoy helping pupils improve in English, and see this as a genuine route into teaching rather than just another temporary job. School-centred teacher training routes in England are designed to be hands-on, with trainees in the classroom from the start and supported by mentoring and structured training.

Requirements

The School:
This state of the art secondary school in Birmingham offers a strong setting for a graduate who wants to learn quickly and grow into the profession. You will join a school where academic support matters, classroom practice is taken seriously, and the English team can give you the kind of day-to-day exposure that helps you build confidence before progressing into teacher training. GOV.UK’s DBS workforce guidance was updated on 20 January 2026 and remains the core eligibility guidance for enhanced checks in roles working with children.
