Welcome to The Staff Room, the region’s only specialist primary supply agency. First for primary teaching and support staff jobs in Northamptonshire, South Leicestershire, Buckinghamshire and Bedfordshire.
The Staff Room is a specialist primary supply agency, so better understands the challenges involved in working in the primary sector. We work with hundreds of local primary schools across the region, so are always looking for Teachers, Teaching Assistants, SEN and Nursery workers to cover day-to-day, short or long- term and permanent assignments.
As the region’s No1 primary supply provider, we always need quality teaching and support staff to work in our client schools throughout the local area. We can offer you day-to-day, short or long-term assignments and permanent roles, either full or part-time. Working with us you will receive excellent rates of pay, fantastic benefits and a friendly, supportive team to help you every step of the way. If we sound like the kind of agency you’d like to work with, we’d love to hear from you.
*Our Free DBS Offer is back* Pay for your DBS on registration (£44.00) and the full amount will be refunded to you when you have worked 10 full days with us. This can be made up of a combination of both full days and half days.
If your school is finding it difficult to source quality cover staff, we can help. Our experienced team will find you the right teacher or TA for any situation. Whether day-to-day, short notice or long term cover, you will be offered primary teaching professionals who have a passion for what they do. That’s why more and more local schools are choosing the Staff Room for their supply requirements.
Our vision is to be the best at everything we do. We want all our teaching, support staff and schools to receive only the highest levels of service, to treat people like people and deliver our service with passion and understanding. We will ensure that all of our day-to-day decision making, our processes, policies and procedures put safeguarding as our number one priority. Only by consistently adhering to these principles will we continue to be known as the area’s leading supplier of primary supply teachers and support staff.
I highly recommend using the Staff Room for your supply needs. We have used the Staff Room for more years than I can remember. I cannot think of a time that we have felt anything other than satisfied. Communication is fast and I feel that our needs as a school are listened too.
The staff are friendly and are always available via email or on the telephone.
Always my first port of call.
After joining The Staff Room for a second time, I have been extremely happy with the service they offer. They have listened to my preferences and found me a long-term supply contract close to home, which was ideal for me, after taking a year out of the profession. They offer a professional, but friendly service accommodating your specific needs. I would highly recommend them.
Choosing The Staff Room was an excellent decision. Efficient, friendly and flexible – 10 days after my interview I was working! When I joined in February ‘25, I knew instantly it was the right decision because they specialise in Primary – it just felt right. Stephen & Jack communicate regularly in person rather than just sending messages and that makes you feel valued and part of the team. The first school I went to was singing their praises. The Staff Room care that their supply staff & schools are happy and that’s so important. Supply teaching gives me a healthy work/life balance – thank you!
We have been working with The Staff Room for a while now and have always found them to be very professional and friendly. They are extremely efficient at arranging supply placements and have been able to fulfill several long term positions within our school. The teachers placed with us via their agency have been of a high standard and adapt to the school setting very quickly. All supply staff have had thorough safeguarding and pre employment checks completed.
The Staff Room provide a great service and are an absolute pleasure to work with, I cannot recommend them enough.
I have had a very positive experience working as a Supply Teacher for The Staff Room! All of the staff are very friendly and helpful. They do their best to arrange work for you ahead of time as opposed to regularly receiving early morning calls, and they will source long term supply placements if that is your preference. I have very much enjoyed being a Supply Teacher at The Staff Room!
I have only worked with The Staff Room since May this year and cannot recommend them highly enough. From my first phone call, I could feel their warmth and enthusiasm during my initial enquiry and they answered all of my questions about the world of supply teaching. They have listened carefully to the types of schools I would like to work in, been accommodating with my work schedule and have massively helped to build my confidence again in teaching. I have met so many lovely children and staff this year because of them. They have a very good reputation in Northamptonshire and I can see why. It has been an absolute pleasure to work for The Staff Room and they really are brilliant. The ‘family feel’ that they have created makes you feel very connected to a team despite being a supply teacher. I can’t thank them enough!
