Newly Qualified Teacher

All NQTS will be accepted!

Job opportunities across KS3, KS4 and KS5 in local Secondary schools across Plymouth and Torbay

Dedicated sector specific consultant allocated based on geographical area

Minimum 1 term of NQT induction to be completed through the NQT Talent Pool by Teaching Personnel

It is with excitement that I introduce the Teaching Personnel NQT Talent Pool 2020/21 in Plymouth and Torbay. The Talent Pool offers Final Year Students/ Newly Qualified Teachers the opportunity to apply through a Talent Pool in order to be considered for NQT posts beginning in September 2020. 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 NQT Talent Pool 2020/21. 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/Microsoft 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 NQTs 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 NQT consultants in the office.

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

The scheme has been created due to the nature of the COVID-19 situation and the lack of organisation and logistics that schools will eventually come back to, meaning recruitment in general will work mainly through a preferred supply agency. 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 NQTs starting in school from September 2020.

COVID-19 has not stopped any of our dedicated consultants working from home to place candidates for the return of schools. Don’t miss out on such a good opportunity. Remember, one application to the TP NQT TALENT POOL can effectively open up multiple opportunities from September 2020!
