Getting your first teaching job in Leicester

Teachers looking to get their first job in teaching are invited to apply to have their details included in a Leicester ‘pool’. These details will be circulated to Leicester secondary headteachers who will then be able to shortlist for any job they may have, inviting candidates from the pool directly for final interview.

Initial interviews for the pool will be held on January 24th with headteachers and senior leaders. They will be looking for high quality new teachers who they would recommend to their colleagues across the city. Being on the pool list is not a guarantee of a job, but information will be sent to all local headteachers recruiting in 2018. Not being on the pool list does not limit the potential for being employed in a Leicester school, it may merely take a little longer.

The pool is only for candidates wishing to teach in the secondary phase.

The Leicester Education Strategic Partnership (LESP) is co-ordinating this recruitment opportunity on behalf of secondary schools in the city of Leicester.
