As a former teacher, your skills and experience both in and out of teaching are valued highly by schools.
If you have experience of teaching any of the following subjects at secondary level, your skills are in even greater demand:
- Maths
- Science
- English, including drama
- Information and communications technology
- Design and technology
- Modern foreign languages
- Religious education
- Music
Before you make a decision about returning to the profession, it’s useful to understand the information, resources and support available to you. These include:
- pay scales and career development opportunities
- flexible working arrangements
- improving your behaviour management skills
- the role of support staff in the classroom
The TDA funds a return to teaching helpline offering advice and support to help you make an informed decision. Call 0845 6000 993.
