Rochester, United Kingdom TeacherActive Full time

Job Title: Primary Teacher – Rochester & Gillingham

Start Date: January 2026 (New year, new you… new job?)
Salary: Competitive, pay to scale (because you genuinely deserve it)

❓ Question Time

Can you sprinkle a little magic and make young minds light up like Christmas trees?

Do you run a classroom like a calm, organised ship… even when the sea gets unexpectedly choppy?

Do you know the Primary Curriculum so well you could recite it in your sleep? (No judgement — we’ve all done it.)

If you answered “YES”, “ABSOLUTELY”, or “WHERE DO I APPLY?” — keep reading.

About Us

At TeacherActive, we’re one of the UK’s biggest and brightest education recruitment agencies, and we’re buzzing to be partnering with fantastic Primary Schools across Rochester and Gillingham.

· Bring energy, creativity and passion every single day

We’re searching for Primary Teachers who:

· Hold QTS (ECTs — we love you too)
· Have that golden Primary classroom experience
· Can manage a class like a pro (think: calm conductor of a small but enthusiastic orchestra)

· A super-friendly, super-speedy team of consultants available 24/7
· Guaranteed Payment Scheme (T&Cs apply)
· Access to CPD courses via My-Progression
