Travelling to the UK and interested in a job in teaching? Register now. What types of teaching jobs in the UK are available? For teachers arriving in London from overseas, there is a full range of vacancies available from agency supply teaching to permanent vacancies. Teaching jobs in the UK are usually described as being Long Term, Day to Day (or Supply) or Permanent. The notes below describe what these terms really mean for you. Note that the UK Visa you hold will to some extent affect the types of positions you can choose from. Any restrictions are also mentioned in the notes below. Long Term Teaching Jobs UK From 5 weeks to a full term or longer, long-term teaching positions usually provide all the benefits of a full time staff member and the stability of work 5 days a week. As a long-term teacher you will have full classroom responsibilities including creating lesson plans, student assessments, liaising with parents and educational bodies, and you may also be involved in professional development. Day-to-Day Supply Teaching Jobs UK Day-to-day supply is an excellent way to kick-start your teaching career in London. This type of employment is common and popular for newly arrived teachers in the UK. The benefits of Day-to-Day supply to a teacher from overseas: You will be introduced to a variety of schools and teaching situations and you'll gain an insight into the different ways schools are run. Teachers arriving outside of the normal school terms, or who require the flexibility of working when they like often prefer this option. You can work whenever and wherever you like. Often daily placements can turn into longer-term assignments, which is one of the benefits of day-to-day teaching. If you have enjoyed a particular day placement be sure to let your UK teaching agency know for future work possibilities. Once working, always give your UK teaching recruitment consultant as much feedback as possible! Note that the key to day-to-day supply work is keeping in touch with your teaching recruitment agency’s office. Often positions are filled on the evening prior to, or the morning of, the day a teacher is required. You will likely be asked to contact your agency’s office about 4pm to 6pm each afternoon and then in between 7am to 9am each morning to see what’s on for that day, or the next and let them know if you are available. It is your responsibility to be prepared for work early and ensure you can access travel information promptly! Permanent Teaching Jobs UK Permanent positions are for those interested in securing a permanent teaching job or for those overseas teachers who require Sponsored Work Permits. In this case a school will interview you in the normal way but when you accept the position you will become a full-time employee of the school. Again, these positions are for teachers who require the security of constant work and a regular income. Permanent teaching positions are ongoing and benefits here include holiday and sick leave pay. Generally schools ask for at least a one-year commitment. Where are Teaching Jobs in the UK Located? Teaching Jobs in the UK are located UK wide, in cities, towns and in rural areas, in publicly funded or independent schools. It is true that most positions are available in the greater London area, as well as Manchester and Birmingham due to the majority of the population being located in these areas. Best of luck.

Scholarship are not offered to non British students. Nor does the UK government give grants or assistants with boarding school fees To get into boarding schools in the UK you have to sit a common entrance exams.Fees vary widely from school to school. £5,559 per term for boarders. At 14 you would be studying for you GCSE = O Levels exams in the UK now. Katlin the whole point is if one can afford to send ones child to boarding school why should they ask for government assistants. They offer scholarship to those from deprived background to go to boarding school. But they two have to sit an entrance exams. Plus pass to get in. But this scholarship is for UK pupils only. For you to sit an entrance exam you would had to had fellow the British school curriculum.

High School ends with the 12th grade (Colloquially known as "matric" from the Matriculation Examinations taken at the end of the year.) Most matriculants are 17/18 years old. Some start university the following year while others take 1 or 2 "gap years". If you live in a major UK city you can hardly avoid meeting young South Africans working there during their gap years.
