About primary education in Liverpool

Liverpool is home to 155 primary schools, and primary staffing here has its own rhythm. Schools plan ahead for PPA and training days, so alongside day-to-day cover there is a steady stream of pre-booked work. Together, Liverpool's schools and nurseries educate around 95,000 children, and that scale keeps primary cover requests coming in every week of term.

Expect to follow the school behaviour policy, adapt planning on the spot and hand over accurate notes at the end of the day. Bookings come from across the city and surrounding areas including City Centre, Wavertree and Aigburth, so you can filter for primary schools within a comfortable commute.

Day-to-day cover frequently leads to long-term maternity or sickness placements with the same school. Because our consultants are based in the North West, we can match you to settings that fit your travel, experience and preferred age range rather than filling any gap that appears.

Liverpool has a rich educational heritage, with over 420 schools and nurseries educating approximately 95,000 children. The city's education sector includes a mix of local authority schools, Catholic schools and multi-academy trusts.

From Wavertree and Aigburth to West Derby and the city centre, Liverpool's school communities are vibrant and welcoming. The city has strong demand for nursery practitioners, primary teachers and SEN specialists.
