Education ⫽ Teacher Jobs

Not quite sure whether a permanent role, long-term supply position, or day-to-day work is the right next step? You're not alone. We're already speaking with lots of Early Career Teachers who are weighing up their options for September 2026 and trying to find a school that's the right fit. At Quokka Education, we help ECTs explore a range of opportunities across Hampshire, including:

• Permanent teaching positions
• Long-term supply roles
• Day-to-day supply work
• Opportunities across a wide range of secondary schools
Why consider supply as an ECT? Many teachers assume they need to jump straight into a permanent role. For some, that's absolutely the right move. For others, supply offers the chance to:
• Gain experience in different schools
• Build confidence in the classroom
• Explore different school environments and cultures
• Develop behaviour management skills
• Find the type of school that's right for you before making a long-term commitment
Many of our long-term supply positions also go on to become permanent opportunities. How We Can Help

• Offer ongoing support throughout your ECT journey
