Teachers recruitment: Bad news as UK changes eligibility criteria

  • The teachers recruitment programme of the United Kingdom will no longer go as planned following a new update
  • According to the UK department for Education, the portal which is scheduled to open by February 1, will only be available for some particular subjects
  • Meanwhile, the government promised to provide update on other subject specialism by May of this year

The United Kingdom Department for Education has updated its document specifying the eligibility criteria for non-UK nationals who are interested in acquiring the Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) which will enable them find teaching jobs across the country.

This update was made few days to the opening of the portal as earlier announced.
