It’s a fairly even split – around 45% are academies or free schools and the rest stay council-maintained. As supply you’ll move between both, which keeps the work varied: different structures, policies and daily routines rather than one single model across every booking.
Scunthorpe runs above the national average for unfilled and hard-to-fill teaching posts, so schools call on supply staff regularly. Day-to-day cover and longer-term placements come up consistently across primary, secondary and specialist settings, rather than only at the busiest times of year.
Quite possibly – about 31% of Scunthorpe’s schools are faith schools (20 Church of England and 5 Catholic). You can work in them as supply whatever your own beliefs; your consultant will flag any expectations a particular school has before you go in, so you know what to expect.
