Jumpstarting Your Career with London Teaching

Jobs

London is not just a great tourist destination; it has also become a dream work

destination for educators. The UK Educational System is known for itsgenerous provision and ideal policies for teachers; definitely a more ideal

system compared to other countries. Teachers from all over the world seek to

find placement in both public and private UK schools with the help of teaching

agencies.

One cannot help but compare the demand for teachers in the UK with the

problematic lack of professional teaching opportunities in other countries.

And its not just the lack of teaching jobs thats the problem; its also the low

salary that most teachers have thats not even enough to cover their expenses

much more. Its unfortunate how many education graduates are forced to

work in fields that do not completely make use of their expertise or leave their

homes to take advantage of the teaching opportunities elsewhere where they

will be well-compensated for their hardwork.

In London, theres always a demand for teachers not just for the traditional

educational system but also for the informal and non-formal schooling

systems. London teaching jobsalways need to be filled to better cater to the

educational needs of particular demographics. Though theres always

demand for regular school teachers, the growing interest of most people for

quick learning programs also needs to be properly catered to. Short courses

for care-giving, medical transcription and other growing industries in the UK

require teachers. Language specialists, especially, are greatly sought after

because of the large number of immigrants who need help in learning English

as a secondary language.

Schools and other educational facilities often affiliate themselves with

reputable teaching agencies that can help them find teachers who can fill theirpost. Not only that, they are also known to direct nurses and other

professionals who wish to do their practice in the school system. The agencies

are always hard at work in placing the perfect people for the positions that

need to be filled and also in finding specific London teaching jobsfor clients

who are on the lookout for a teaching career within the city.

Jumpstarting your career in London can surely be made easier by signing up

with a teaching agency. Its pertinent to conduct a thorough background

check first before entrusting your professional career to the hands of aparticular group. Look for an agency thats accredited with the Department of

Educations Quality Mark. This mark is assurance that the London teaching

jobs that will be assigned to you are quality ones that will satisfy you

professionally and monetarily.

Trusting Accredited UK Teaching Agencies for

Quality Job Placements

A lot of teachers nowadays often

dread the period of seeking

employment. For most of them,

its going from one job

opportunity to another and

being asked to wait for a span of

time until they get told if they

got the job or not.

Getting help from a teachingagency often seems shady and

an expense which most of these

job-seekers feel they do not

need. This misconception was probably prompted by news of anomalous

agencies that dupe their clients just for the money. However, this is not the

case among UK teaching agencies which are mostly accredited with the

Department of Educations Quality Mark. This accreditation is not easily

earned, and agencies that have this accreditation naturally have to abide bythe high standards of the department. Any teaching agency that fails to do so

does not get accredited or loses their accreditation, thus instantly relegating

them as a second-rate agency not expected to give quality service. Since this is

a business, no agency would risk losing its accreditation because the stakes

are just too high.

The Department of Educations Quality Mark is an important consideration of

teachers seeking placement in schools and schools looking for teachers

whenever they need the services of a teaching agency. Consistently accredited

agencies provide their clients the confidence of only getting quality

placements. These agencies always make sure to perform an in-depth

evaluation of the credentials of the teachers they recommend to schools.

Apparently, this is an effective way of upholding the particular educational

standards of client institutions as well as reinforcing the good reputation of

the agencies.

UK teaching agenciesare committed to providing their clients with the best

quality service. Vouching for the credibility of one client to the other is acritical job that they do where quality is always of utmost important. True,

they get paid for their placement services but making sure that the people

they recommend to a school and the other way around will produce an ideal

as well as beneficial working relationship is an underlying factor of the real

goal; its not just placing people in a system where they might fit, its about

quality placement where everybody wins.

Checking out the classified ads still works, of course, but how about getting

really serious with your job hunt by getting the help ofUK teaching agencies?The rate of success is higher and the process will definitely be less stressful on

you.

In a recent report published by the

Organisation for Economic Co-operation

and Development (OECD), the UK isshown as having the third highest

university tuition fees in the world. The

US and Korea reportedly come in at first

and second, respectively. What does it

all mean? It indicates a remarkable

opportunity for those seeking to enter

the teaching profession. Teaching jobs

UK, mainly, grant enormous possibilitiesfor career satisfaction and adequate

security. You can either start with a

university degree focusing on education

or shift mid-career towards a job in

instruction, provided of course you have

the proper credentials.

The revealing OECD report also included

the average class sizes at the primary and lower secondary levels. In

comparison to the 22.8% class size in the US, UKs lower secondary class size

in 2009 was at 19.6%. The study found that upper secondary graduation rates

were better in the UK at 92%, whereas the US had a rate of 76% and the

European Union had 85%.

Teaching in the UK, you get a more manageable class size and have a better

chance of producing students who move on to university level.

Understandably then, the educational standards are exceptionally higher inthe UK. Teaching credentials are scrutinised to provide the degree of

instruction capable of delivering the best possible education for the countrys

future workforce.

State-maintained schools in England and Wales require teacher training and

examinations for qualified teaching status, aside from obtaining a bachelors

degree. The teacher training depends on the age group you intend to teach.

The training and qualifying exams for certification are handled by the Training

and Development Agency for Schools (TDA). If you havent taken the

necessary exams for English, science or mathematics, your initial teacher

training (ITT) provider should give you a pre-entry test. All of this is a pre-

requisite to being awarded a qualified teaching status so you can apply for

London teaching jobs.

According to the TDA, the minimum annual salary for a newly qualified

teacher is set at 21,588. In inner London, the salary starts off at 27,000. You

can look up teaching opportunities online, through local and national press, orenquire with local education authorities. However, UK teaching agencies

would have a much more comprehensive listing of available posts in the best

locations.

Teaching agencies or recruitment firms also offer a range of services other

than provide job opportunities. Professional and established agencies will

have free training courses and consultants to help you direct or develop your

career in education. So, if youre considering a shift in profession or have a

passion for teaching, acquire the proper credentials and consider anaccredited agency to help you find that rewarding teaching post.

What You Can Expect When Teaching in the UK

The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher

demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.- William Arthur Ward

Great teachers are few and far between. You can perhaps count the number of

exceptional ones in one hand; teachers that inspire you enough to re-enact

that glorious Dead Poets Society scene where all the chaps stand on their

desks proclaiming their devotion and respect to a rather serious version ofRobin Williams. While teaching is a huge responsibility, it can also be equally

rewarding. Teaching in the UK affords this opportunity with a range of

resources from the government and private sectors.

Starting Your Career

If you arent quite sure about taking on a career in ed ucation, you can spend

time in a classroom. The School Experience Programme (SPE) is a bit like a

cross breed of class auditing and on-the-job training. The SPE allows you toimmerse in school life as an observer in several classes and as a teaching

assistant, with opportunities to plan and deliver a part of or the entire lesson

to an actual class. The Programme will also give you a chance to study the day-

to-day management of a school, allowing you to be familiar with current

school policies.

During your participation in the SPE, you can consult with teachers who have

had years of experience. This, along with the classroom experience you

acquire during the placement, will guide you better in deciding whether

London teaching jobssuit you.

The SPE can take anywhere from one to 10 days. If you arent prepared to dive

right into teaching a class just yet, the Teaching Advocate Programme

provides advice and insights into a career in education. Teaching advocates

are serving teachers who can help you make an informed decision by telling

you what its like to teach on a day-to-day basis. You can find out about

classroom behaviour, curriculum, and workload management.

The Rewards and Benefits

Theteaching jobs UKoffers are as rewarding as any corporate post. If youve

received your newly qualified teacher (NQT) status, you can expect a starting

salary of 21,588 a year in England and Wales, 27,000 if you work in inner

London, 25,117 for outer London, and 22,626 for London fringe. The pay

scales are amended by the government every September, according to the

Training and Development Agency for Schools (TDA), which will soon be

closed to make way for the Department of Educations new executive body,

the Teaching Agency.

UK teaching agencies can help you find the best available teaching posts.

Teaching agencies will also offer a range of services other than provide job

opportunities. Accredited and established agencies will have free training

courses and consultants to help you direct or develop your career in

education.

Life as a teacher is an enormous responsibility. You will not only instruct,

explain, and demonstrate, but you will want to inspire. After all, you will have

in your classroom a captive audience of future artists, titans of industries, and

citizens who will shape the future of England.

Teaching Agencies: London and Its Search for

Effective Educators

"Once children learn

how to learn, nothing

is going to narrow

their mind. The

essence of teaching is

to make learning

contagious, to have

one idea sparkanother." American

educator Marva

Collins may have

uttered these words, but they speak of a philosophy that is taken to heart by

any teacher living in any corner of the world.

What teachers possess is an extraordinary gifta love for knowledge that

must be shared with other people. Indeed, it takes a certain fire, a special

passion for helping someone else exceed their present abilities and capacities

that essentially makes a good teacher. Such individuals are valuable, which is

why the best teachers are continually being sought and recruited byteaching

agencies. London aims to bring the most effective educators to the city's

schools and nurseries in order to foster a love for education among its

children.

Why would you consider a career in education? For most established teachers,

the reasons are mainly of a compassionate and helpful nature; there is alwaysa desire to communicate with young children and help them gain new

experiences, new insights. It is more than simply feeding new information to a

child and expecting the child to repeat it exactly as it is; teachers can recognize

the potential of the human mind to learn information, interpret it in as many

ways as possible, and decide for themselves how the knowledge can be

applied into actions in their own lives. In essence, efficient teaching allows

children to arm themselves with the knowledge they will need to survive in a

multi-faceted world.

Look back on your early school daysyou are sure to remember one or twoparticular teachers who left an indelible mark on your childhood. It may be

the teacher who taught you how to use a microscope and introduced you to a

world of minute organisms that led to your career in studying diseases.

It may be the one who encouraged you to write for the school paper, the same

person you remember fondly each time you head out for news writing

assignment.

Or perhaps you remember most the home economics teacher who stayedbehind for your second batch of muffins and taught you how to bake pastries

with the delight of your family and friends in mind--a practice that you have

kept each time you dust your hands with flour at your bakery, no matter if

you're making a plate of cookies or a wedding cake for 100 people.

Teachers are the people who encourage us to learn as much as we can, until

we find our own passions and eventually spend a lifetime being better at our

chosen crafts. There would be no greater reward for educators all over the

world than seeing their little charges absorb the knowledge they have passedon and find an area they in turn can excel in.

Do you have a passion for communicating and working with young children?

Do you have the flexibility to interact with individuals of varying learning

levels? Do you live to motivate another person to maximize their potentials

and nurture a hunger for knowledge that they can feed throughout their lives?

If you agree to all these, then you may have found for yourself a worthy

vocation. Approach any number ofteaching agencies-- Londonwill be glad to

adopt you into its education system and nurture a new generation of

inquisitive little learners.
