As a professional Mathematics, Science, IT and/or English South African teacher, your experience and qualifications are highly valued in the UK

SA-Recruitment can assist you with guidance and advice on teaching in the UK, relocation and accommodation as well as ensure registered teachers of work whilst in the UK.

To work as a teacher in the UK, you would require the right to work in the UK (ancestral visa, UK/EU passport, highly skilled visa) OR you would need work permit sponsorship. The work permit scheme has changed significantly over the past few months; we will guide you through the requirements and put you in touch with visa specialists who will assist you with every step.

On the issueing of your visa, and completion of your paperwork, we will assist you with flight confirmations, curriculum preparation and assistance sourcing accommodation; this will ensure a smooth start abroad.

We do not charge a fee for our recruitment services for teachers, but you will need to pay for your visa, your flight to the UK and your accommodation.
