Frequently Asked Questions

How much supply teaching work is there in Leeds?

Leeds alone has 282 state-funded schools – 223 primary and 41 secondary – and sits inside West Yorkshire’s wider network of 919 schools teaching around 380,605 pupils. That scale keeps daily and long-term supply work coming up across primary, secondary and specialist settings all year.

Are Leeds schools mostly academies or council-run?

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.

Is there strong demand for supply teachers in Leeds?

Leeds sits close to the national average for unfilled and hard-to-fill teaching posts, so there’s a steady, dependable flow of supply work – day-to-day cover and longer placements alike – across its 282 schools, rather than sharp peaks and troughs.

Will I be placed in faith schools around Leeds?

Quite possibly – about 25% of Leeds’s schools are faith schools (41 Church of England and 30 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.

What kinds of areas will I be teaching in around Leeds?

From inner-city Leeds schools to suburban and market-town settings across West Yorkshire, the contexts vary widely – so you can pick up very different classrooms week to week depending on which areas you choose to work in.
