    • Competitive, market-leading rates of pay


    • Guaranteed Payment Scheme (Terms and Conditions apply)


    • Access to CPD courses and certificates through our My-Progression platform


    • TeacherActive Referral Scheme – earn up to £100 for referring a friend (Terms and Conditions apply)


      All of our staff are paid on a PAYE basis, ensuring you pay the correct level of tax and National Insurance — no hidden admin fees or umbrella company deductions.
