Newly Qualified Teacher in Huddersfield, Yorkshire And The Humber

Newly Qualified Teacher — Huddersfield | September 2026 Start | Permanent | MPS £32,916 – £38,810 KPI Education | Primary & Secondary Schools across Huddersfield

Congratulations on completing your training — now let's find you the perfect school to begin your teaching career.

KPI Education is working with outstanding primary and secondary schools across Huddersfield to place Newly Qualified Teachers (ECTs) into permanent, full-time roles for September 2026. These are schools that genuinely invest in their Early Career Teachers, offering the structured support, mentorship, and development you need to thrive in those crucial first two years and beyond.

The Role

As an Early Career Teacher, you'll step into your own classroom with the backing of an experienced mentor, a structured ECT induction programme, and a school community that understands exactly what it takes to make the transition from training into teaching. You'll teach your specialist subject or year group, contribute to school life, and begin building the skills and confidence that will define your career.

This is your moment — and we want to make sure you start it in the right place.

What's on Offer

• Permanent, full-time ECT positions with September 2026 starts
• Salary on MPS £32,916 – £38,810 depending on school and location
• Roles available across primary (EYFS, KS1, KS2) and secondary (KS3, KS4, KS5) settings throughout Huddersfield
• Fully structured two-year ECT induction with a dedicated in-school mentor
• Reduced timetable in line with statutory ECT entitlements — protected time to observe, reflect, and develop
• Regular professional development sessions tailored to your needs and ambitions
• Warm, welcoming school cultures where new teachers are genuinely valued
• Clear progression pathways from ECT through to Subject Lead, Head of Year, and beyond
• A genuine commitment to staff wellbeing and work-life balance
• Schools matched to your subject, phase, and preferred location across Huddersfield and the surrounding area

Who We're Looking For

• A newly qualified teacher on track to achieve or who has recently achieved QTS
• A degree in any subject relevant to your chosen phase or specialist area (2:1 or above preferred)
• Enthusiastic, motivated, and ready to embrace the challenges and rewards of your first teaching post
• A reflective practitioner — open to feedback, eager to learn, and committed to continuous improvement
• Strong classroom presence with the ability to build positive, productive relationships with pupils
• Organised, resilient, and able to manage the demands of full-time teaching with a healthy perspective
• A genuine passion for your subject or phase and a belief that every child deserves an excellent education
• Must have the right to work in the UK

A Note to ECTs — Choosing the Right School Matters

Your first school will shape your career more than almost any other decision you make as a teacher. The quality of your induction, the support of your mentor, and the culture of your school will determine not just how quickly you develop — but how much you enjoy the profession in those vital early years.

At KPI Education, we take this seriously. We only place ECTs in schools we know and trust — schools with strong ECT track records, experienced mentors, and leadership teams that genuinely prioritise the wellbeing and development of new staff. We won't simply match you to any vacancy. We'll take the time to find the right fit.
