Ready for change?
So, you’re a qualified teacher who wants to live and work in England.
Point to Point Education specialises in placing Early Years, Primary, Secondary and SEN teachers in schools throughout England.
From the buzz of inner-city London schools to the quieter pace of country Oxfordshire, we have roles available for teachers from every level of experience.
Whether you’re a graduate teacher looking to kick start your career, or an experienced teacher searching for a new challenge, Point to Point has you covered.
How does it work?
First, we get to know you. We find out what’s important to you, professionally and financially, to establish what type of contract will best suit you. Short and long term contracts (on daily pay rates), as well as permanent contracts (on school salary), are available throughout the year.
Interviews with schools are usually held face to face if you’re already in England, or via Skype/Zoom if you’re overseas. Each term, Point to Point arrange for British Principals to fly out to various countries like Australia, Canada, USA and New Zealand to interview teachers in person.
