The role of Maternity Cover Teacher at Holy Trinity is an exciting opportunity. The successful applicant will have designated PPA time. Flexibility and time management are important attributes. There is an additional opportunity for extra hours during the duration of the maternity contract. These can be negotiated with the successful candidate.

The successful candidate will teach across the school covering PPA through the school. As a single academy trust, Holy Trinity is forward-thinking and outward-looking. We are driven to do the very best for the children in our care.
