Application process

Primary

Upon receipt, your application will be assessed. We can forward your information and references on to the headteacher of a school that has a Main Pay Scale vacancy, where your skills and/or experience appear appropriate. 

The headteacher may contact you to discuss the post and arrange an interview.

We hold all applications on file and are available for use by headteachers for one term or until the candidate is either appointed or informs us they no longer wish to be considered.

Please be assured that even if you do not hear from us immediately, your application will be put forward for suitable posts if and when they arise later in the term.

If, however, you see any of our schools advertising a post for which you think you would be particularly suitable, please feel free to contact this office to assure yourself that your application is being considered.

Please note that the general application process is for Primary MPS classroom teaching only. Specific vacancies, including posts of responsibility, will be advertised on this website, Jobs and Recruitment.

Secondary

We are no longer operating a central application system for secondary experienced teachers.

Vacancies are advertised on our website www.redbridge.gov.uk and in national publications such as the TES and Guardian. Completed application forms should be submitted directly to schools as per individual adverts.

Application forms and guidance

If you have any queries, please contact the Recruitment Team - email recruitment.office@redbridge.gov.uk, telephone 020 8708 8820.

Part-time / job share opportunities

In response to an increasing demand from teachers, the Redbridge teacher recruitment and retention service are compiling a separate register of teachers considering part-time / job share opportunities.

The aim is to improve flexibility for both schools and teachers.

We will then provide headteachers with a wider range of candidates prepared to consider part-time and job share opportunities. Candidates can also be considered for full-time opportunities simultaneously.

How to apply

If you wish to be considered for this option, please download and complete the registration form below and return it together with the full application form.
