Psychology Teacher (KS4 & KS5)
Location: Bristol
Start: 10th February – Easter (with potential 1-year maternity cover from Easter)
Full-time: Paid to Scale
• Are you the kind of Psychology teacher who loves sparking debate, unpicking behaviour, and watching students suddenly get it?
• Do you thrive in an environment where curiosity is celebrated, academic standards are high, and staff are genuinely supported?
If so, this could be a truly special opportunity.
TeacherActive is proud to be working with a highly regarded independent school in Bristol, seeking an inspiring Psychology Teacher to join their thriving department.
Initially, this role will run from 10th February through to Easter, covering a period of staff absence due to surgery. However, there is strong potential for the right candidate to continue from Easter on a 1-year maternity cover, making this an excellent opportunity for someone seeking both immediate work and longer-term stability.
You’ll be teaching motivated, articulate students across KS4 and KS5, in a school that values academic excellence, pastoral care and staff wellbeing in equal measure.
Why you’ll love this role:
Bright, engaged students who genuinely enjoy Psychology
Small, well-behaved classes with a strong sixth-form culture
A collaborative, well-resourced department
A school that champions professional development and staff support
The chance to make a real impact — and potentially stay long term
Your role will include:
Teaching engaging and thought-provoking Psychology lessons at KS4 and KS5
Bringing psychological theory to life through real-world examples and discussion
Planning, preparation and marking in line with exam board expectations
Monitoring progress and supporting students to achieve their full potential
Playing an active role within the sixth form and wider school community
We’re looking for:
QTS (or a confident ECT with strong subject knowledge)
Proven experience teaching KS5 Psychology (essential)
A passion for inclusive, student-focused teaching
A positive, professional and collaborative approach
What you’ll receive:
Paid to scale via PAYE – no umbrella fees, no hidden costs
A dedicated consultant supporting you throughout your placement
Access to free CPD and career development through My-Progression
Guaranteed Payment Scheme (T&Cs apply)
£100 referral bonus (T&Cs apply)
If you’re looking for a Psychology role that combines academic challenge, supportive culture and genuine progression potential, this is not one to miss.
