Naturally, we are not the only employment consultancy to include education as part of their portfolio of services. Where Teach Now surpasses its competitors, though, is through the unwavering focus and attention to detail demonstrated by our strong local and international connections. As a company, we retain strong relationships with our schools and local authorities. Through involvement in school governance, working parties, and committees such as Barnet’s Recruitment and Retention Committee and the London Diocese Board for Schools. Teach Now has also been identified as its preferred and retained recruitment consultancy for its ECTs (Early Career Teachers – Formerly known as NQTs).

Teaching Without Borders

Although our primary focus is managing teaching positions throughout the UK and New Zealand, we are always interested to hear from teaching professionals from across the world who are keen to widen their professional development by teaching in the UK. To date, we have successfully recruited teachers from throughout the UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

If you trained outside the UK, you can still apply online for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) in the UK through the Government website.

We believe it is our duty to ensure that each candidate benefits from continued professional and personal development.
