Change career to teach a shortage subject: coffee in London

If you’re eligible to teach Computing, Maths, Modern Foreign Languages or Science, you’re in demand.

Why? There’s simply not enough teachers for these subjects - and pupil numbers are expected to rise by 15% in secondary schools by 2025.

You might feel a bit rusty in your subject knowledge. Our recruitment team is on hand to explain how we can support you to boost your expertise. If you’re considering changing career to join our Training Programme, we’re prepared to answer your questions too.

These 30-minute chats are specifically for people who graduated at least one year ago and are based in London.

There is lots of information to get you started on our website about Teach First, our Training Programme and our teaching requirements. We recommend reading this before you meet us, such as what you’re eligible to teach.

You will be meeting George or Sam who are the dedicated recruiters for London. If you have any immediate questions, or can’t make any of the available slots, don’t hesitate to reach out on gpetrou@teachfirst.org.uk or sgraham@teachfirst.org.uk.
