GAC Education is an education supply agency and recruitment agency for schools in Liverpool. We supply teachers, SEN staff, teaching assistants and cover supervisors, and we recruit permanent staff for primary, secondary and special schools.

Liverpool schools are looked after by our Merseyside & Cheshire desk on 0151 404 9965. Call that number for day to day supply, a long term assignment, or a permanent appointment. Candidates can call the same number about work in the city.

Liverpool is one part of our coverage. The same desk looks after the Wirral, Chester, Warrington and the rest of Cheshire and Merseyside, and our Yorkshire desk on 0113 460 1938 covers Leeds, Bradford, Halifax, Huddersfield, Wakefield and Hull. A trust with schools in both regions can use one school supply agency for all of them.

Supply agencies in Liverpool

Schools in Liverpool book supply teachers, teaching assistants, cover supervisors and SEN staff with the Merseyside and Cheshire desk on 0151 404 9965, or by email at office@gac.education. Tell the desk the phase, the dates, the subject or support need, and the district. A start in Walton, Everton or Anfield is a different journey from Speke, Garston, Allerton or Wavertree.

The same desk covers day to day supply, long term assignments and permanent appointments for primary, secondary and special schools, including resourced provision. Roles include class teachers, SEN teachers, teaching assistants, HLTAs and cover supervisors. Coverage runs through the city centre and the districts named on this page, and out to Knowsley and Sefton. Candidates register for Liverpool work on the same number. Checks follow KCSIE 2026 before anyone is put forward.

Supply teacher jobs in Liverpool

Supply teacher jobs in Liverpool appear in the list below when a school has a live vacancy in the city or one of the districts named here. A row shows the role, the type of work, the location and the pay where the vacancy includes it. Work can be day to day supply, long term cover or a permanent post in a primary, secondary or special school. If you can reach the city for the start of the school day, from Everton and Anfield down to Speke and Garston, say so when you apply. You can also call 0151 404 9965 or email office@gac.education. If nothing in Liverpool is listed today, the vacancies page shows roles in the other towns we cover.

Supply teaching in Liverpool

Liverpool schools book supply teachers when a class teacher is absent, when a colleague is out for a planned period, or while a permanent post is still open. The brief might be reception in Wavertree, maths or science in the city centre, or a special school class.

When we match a candidate to a Liverpool school we look at experience, key stage, any SEN needs, and whether the journey to your school works for the start of the day. Walton, Everton and Anfield are a different journey from Speke, Garston and Allerton. Tell us the district when you book.

Day to day cover and long term cover sit in the same service. Long term supply can hold a class during maternity leave or while a permanent teacher is recruited. Where the work is already planned, a cover supervisor can supervise the lesson instead. Read how supply teachers are recruited and how cover supervisors are recruited, then call 0151 404 9965 if you would rather talk it through.

SEN and teaching assistant supply in Liverpool

SEN supply in Liverpool is a separate brief from general cover. Mainstream schools, resourced provision and special schools ask for people who know that setting. A 1:1 teaching assistant matched to an EHCP is a different booking from a general classroom TA or an HLTA.

Tell us the phase, the provision, and what the pupil or class needs, so the booking is not treated as ordinary cover. SEN teachers, teaching assistants and HLTAs are booked by the same Merseyside & Cheshire desk on 0151 404 9965.

Candidates should say which settings they will work in, and which parts of the city they can reach for the start of the day. Walton and Anfield are a different journey from Allerton, Garston, Speke, Bootle and Crosby. Our SEN recruitment page sets out the specialisms, and our teaching assistants page sets out TA and HLTA supply.

Permanent education recruitment in Liverpool

Permanent education recruitment in Liverpool is for schools that need someone to stay: a class teacher, a subject specialist, a SENCO, a teaching assistant, or a school leader. The school speaks to the same desk on 0151 404 9965 about permanent posts and supply.

A permanent brief should cover the phase, the contract, the start date, and what you need the person to do. We put candidates forward only after they have been through our safeguarding and vetting process. Our DBS & safeguarding page explains that process, including checks aligned with KCSIE 2026.

Some schools use long term supply while they recruit. Others ask us to start the permanent search straight away. Leadership posts, including headteachers, deputy heads and heads of department, go through our leadership recruitment service. Our permanent recruitment page explains a standard teaching appointment.

We cover schools across Liverpool and the rest of Merseyside. In the city that includes Liverpool city centre, Everton, Anfield, Kirkdale, Walton, Fazakerley, Croxteth, Norris Green, West Derby, Tuebrook, Kensington, Old Swan, Wavertree, Toxteth, Dingle, Aigburth, Mossley Hill, Allerton, Childwall, Woolton, Belle Vale, Garston and Speke.

The Queensway Tunnel links Liverpool city centre with Birkenhead, and the Kingsway Tunnel links the north of the city with Wallasey. Schools on the Wirral have a Wirral supply agency page, because the peninsula is its own area. Warrington is further east, in Cheshire, on our Warrington supply agency page, and schools in Chester and Cheshire West have our Chester supply agency page. Schools between Liverpool and Warrington can call 0151 404 9965.

How to book cover (schools)
