It is with excitement that I introduce the Teaching Personnel ECT Talent Pool 2025/26 in Lancashire. The Talent Pool offers Final Years Student/Unqualified and Early Career Teachers the opportunity to apply through a Talent Pool in order to be considered for ECT posts beginning in September 2025. The pool requires only a couple of pre-requisites and with this you are given an opportunity to secure a long-term (full or part-time) teaching position in a local school where you will complete at least one term of your NQT induction.

At the application stage you will be expected to provide the following information, aside from your usual personal details and six-year career history:

-      Proof of Qualified Teacher Status or proof you will qualify in the following months

-      The ability to provide a DBS on the Update Service or have means to purchase this through the vetting process with Teaching Personnel 

-      Referee details from all your placement schools and potentially other relevant employers

-      A full up to date CV specifying your experiences and roles and responsibilities

Given all this information we will be happy to process your application and subject to full vetting and compliance you will then be registered to join the TP ECT Talent Pool 2025/26. Here you will have access to regular job advertisements through the agency as well as opportunities to join free and subsidised continuous professional development. More importantly, you will be subject to potential interviews through face to face/TEAMs and SKYPE as well as potential mini lesson observations (subject to school closures and social distancing policies). You will be in competition with other budding ECTs in the local area so it is important that you are well prepared and stand out from the rest! You will be given opportunities to speak with the specialist ECT consultants in the office,

Who are on hand, initially to tailor your CV, offer advice on interview and observations as well as work alongside you through the full induction process.

As Teaching Personnel is the leading agency across the UK, more schools than ever will be using this service in order to guarantee they have the best ECTs starting in school from September 2025. Feedback from Head teacher’s we have corresponded with has already sparked interest and within weeks we are expecting to place our first wave of ECTs in the Lancashire area. Make sure YOU are in the first wave!
