The Department for Education’s Teaching Vacancies service helps teachers like you to find teaching jobs and saves schools thousands of pounds on recruitment advertising so that they can redirect money back into the classroom.
98% of secondary schools are signed up and the service is the largest source of primary school vacancies listed directly by schools in England.
Helping you find a teaching position for September 2025
At Teaching Vacancies we want to help you and other trainee teachers in preparing, and finding, your first qualified teaching role through the service.
To get help, visit Get help applying for your teaching role – Teaching Vacancies – GOV.UK
When visiting the service, you’ll find advice on completing a school’s application form, writing an effective personal statement, and preparing for an interview. You will also find a link to setting up job alerts, so you are always kept aware of when suitable vacancies are available to apply for.
