RETURN TO A CAREER IN TEACHING AND GET BACK TO MAKING A DIFFERENCE

Whether you left to bring up a family or explore a different career, returning to teaching gives you the chance to make a difference every day.  Bring your skills back to the classroom and we’ll support you at every step to ensure your return is smooth and tailored to meet your needs.

Groups of schools will be running a new initiative to help teachers return to the classroom.  Each school taking part will be able to provide a free package of bespoke support to help qualified teachers return in a way that best suits them.

The support provided by the Return to Teaching programme could include subject knowledge and classroom training, behaviour management advice, a guide to assessment frameworks and current initiatives, as well as one to one mentoring.  You can apply until the end of March 2016.
