What we can do for overseas teachers 

There are real shortages of teachers in some areas of England particularly London, Kent and Essex. This means you have a good chance of securing a full time, permanent post in a school of your choice.

Overseas teachers have assisted to fill the gap in teacher staff storages for many years and have gained a great reputation not only for the quality of teaching they provide but also for the enthusiasm, motivation and professionalism they bring to the classroom. We provide specialist, dedicated support to overseas teachers looking to work in the UK.

London is at the centre of International travel and provides an ideal staging point for your overseas adventure. Whether you are keen to explore the historic cities of Europe, or more distant shores, you will have an excellent base from which to travel.

Schools in the UK are autonomous and can make their own staffing decisions. This means that teachers are appointed on merit and can direct their careers free from the restrictions of governing bodies.

What teaching positions are available?
Teacher recruitment in UK schools continues to pose problems. In addition to needing teacher resources to cover emergency and casual vacancies, schools also require contract and permanent staff to meet their ongoing demands.


When can I expect to teach?
Essentially there is a constant demand for casual relief teachers year round. This is supplemented by a demand for contract and permanent staff at the beginning of the academic year in September and the start of term two in January.

Interviews for UK teaching contracts take place in October for contracts commencing in the January term.

For teaching contracts commencing in September then May/June is when interviews take place. It is essential for those teachers interested in contract positions to submit their details prior to this time.

If you are a qualified teacher looking for work opportunities in nursery, primary, secondary or special needs schools within the UK, Work Gate Recruitment Solutions can help.

We provide a large variety of work options to suit your individual requirements. Assignments include day to day supply, short or long term positions as well as permanent positions in Early Years, Primary, Secondary and Special Needs Schools across the UK.
