Make yourself at home

Scotland has long been revered for the warmth of its welcome. Our country is a melting pot of different peoples and cultures, with more than 150 different languages spoken throughout Scotland. This means that, whether you pop over the water from one of our European neighbours, or come from Canada, New Zealand, Australia or further afield, you're sure to feel right at home. 

We're also an incredibly open country, with vibrant, cosmopolitan cities, wondrous culture and history and stunning scenery. What's more, with a reputation for providing a great 'work/life balance', you will have plenty time to explore Scotland's great outdoors after the school bell rings.

Opportunity knocks...

We know that teaching is an incredibly rewarding job, it is a career that has a strong sense of job satisfaction - where your efforts are rewarded by watching the young people you teach progress and develop. However, in Scotland, that's not the only type of reward you'll get, as we also offer an attractive package of benefits that will reward you financially and personally throughout your career and beyond.

The good news is that even if you are a newly-qualified teacher, or are a soon-to-be-qualified teacher, there are opportunities for you here in Scotland. Moving to Scotland offers opportunity to travel and experience a new part of the world as well as get a great start to your career in teaching. Not only that - there's an opportunity to teach in a diverse range of options (rural/urban) in a very progressive education sector.
