Returning to teaching

If you’re thinking about returning to teaching in England, support is available.

The Return to Teach Advisory service is a free, one-to-one support package. It is for qualified teachers seeking to return to teaching primary or any secondary subject in a state-funded school in England.

Candidates will have access to an exclusive Facebook group for returning teachers and the support of a named Return To Teaching Adviser.

The adviser will:

  • talk through gaining classroom experience
  • signpost relevant courses, teaching job vacancies and events
  • help prepare applications for teaching posts including preparing for interviews

For more information and to sign up for an advisor, visit return to teaching on GOV.UK.
