About Teaching and school jobs

School vacancies cover the whole staff room: classroom teachers and leaders, plus the support roles that keep schools running — teaching assistants, cover supervisors, technicians, pastoral staff, office managers and site teams. Teaching posts in England generally require Qualified Teacher Status (QTS); our guides to QTS routes and teaching jobs, QTS and pay explain the paths in.

Teacher pay follows national pay ranges (main and upper pay ranges, with leadership scales above them, and London variants); support-staff pay usually sits on council-style grades — often term-time-only, so check how the advertised salary is pro-rated. Becoming a teaching assistant is the most common way into school work without QTS.

School recruitment is safer-recruitment driven: expect a full application form (not just a CV), references taken up before interview, an enhanced DBS check, and interview days that include a taught lesson or classroom task. Timing matters too — hiring peaks in spring and early summer around resignation deadlines for September starts.

Common questions

Can I work in a school without QTS?

Yes — teaching assistants, cover supervisors, technicians, pastoral and admin staff don't need QTS, and unqualified-teacher arrangements exist in some settings. If you want to teach long-term, our QTS routes guide covers how to qualify, including while working.

Why do the same teaching jobs appear at odd times of year?

Teachers must resign by set dates each term, so vacancies cluster ahead of September and January starts — spring is the busiest season. Support-staff hiring runs year-round.

What does "term-time only" mean for pay?

You're employed (and paid) for school weeks plus, typically, some inset days, with the annual amount pro-rated and usually spread across twelve months. Two adverts with the same headline grade can pay differently if their working weeks differ — always check.
