Secondary School Teacher (Paid to Scale)

What if your next teaching role felt like a better fit?

As schools begin planning for the next academic year, many teachers across Fareham and the surrounding areas are taking stock of where they are in their careers.

Perhaps you're happy where you are but curious about what's available. Maybe you're looking for new challenges, greater support, a shorter commute, or opportunities for progression.

Whatever your reasons, exploring your options now could put you in a strong position ahead of September 2026.

At Quokka Education, we work with secondary schools across Fareham, Portchester, Gosport, Whiteley, Locks Heath, Stubbington, Lee-on-the-Solent and surrounding Hampshire areas, helping teachers find roles that suit both their professional ambitions and personal priorities.

We are currently supporting schools with:

• Permanent teaching opportunities for September 2026
• Long-term teaching assignments with the potential to become permanent
• Vacancies across a wide range of secondary subject specialisms

Teaching is challenging enough. Job searching shouldn't be.

Finding a new role can be time-consuming, especially when you're balancing teaching, planning and everything else that comes with working in education.

That's why we take a different approach.

We get to know you, understand what's important to you, and introduce you to opportunities that genuinely match your preferences and career goals.

• Access opportunities across multiple local schools through one conversation
• Confidential introductions to schools looking for teachers like you
• Advice and support with CVs, applications and interviews
• Insight into local schools, leadership teams and cultures
• Honest feedback and guidance throughout the process

Why teachers choose to work with us

• A friendly, personalised approach
• Honest conversations with no pressure
• Strong relationships with local schools
• A focus on long-term success rather than quick placements
• Support from your initial enquiry through to securing your next role

We're keen to hear from

• Qualified Teachers (QTS, QTLS or equivalent)
• Early Career Teachers (ECTs)
• Experienced teachers considering a move for September 2026
• Teachers across all secondary subject areas, including English, Maths, Science, Humanities, Languages, PE, Technology and the Arts

You don't need to be actively looking

Some of the best career moves start with a simple conversation.

Whether you're ready to move, keeping an eye on the market, or just interested in understanding what's available locally, we'd be happy to help.

There's no obligation and no expectation - just the opportunity to explore roles that could be a better fit for you.
