Teach and take advantage of a world city

 
Children in class with teacher Teach: we want people who can inspire children to learn
Teach in Greenwich and you can take advantage of everything a world city like London has to offer – yet still find green space and many different leisure pursuits right on your doorstep.

Tackling inequality

Like any major city, London has its fair share of urban problems. Poor and deprived districts sit alongside affluent areas.

Tackling inequality is a top priority in education, as well as in the wider community.

Transport connections

Greenwich has great transport connections. Ways of getting around range from tubes, trains, buses and ferries, to good roads and cycle paths.

Plus, London City airport is just across the River Thames via the Woolwich Ferry.

We’re looking for exceptional teachers

We want people who can inspire learning - teachers who can encourage pupils from all backgrounds to reach their potential.

In return, we can offer you …

  • inner London pay scales
  • Key Worker housing programmes
  • professional development opportunities, backed up by a Professional Development Centre
  • childcare provision
  • Season Ticket loans
… and so much more.

Visit our support and incentives page for more information.
