Teachers from outside an EEA-qualified state must have three years of teaching experience and be recognised by an EEA member state. If you are working in a private or independent school you will not necessarily need a QTS. However, having a QTS can help you to secure a job, and will mean you will be on the qualified teacher pay scale. When starting your QTS application online, you should have a few items on-hand first:.
Evidence that you are qualified to teach can often be checked online. If so, be prepared to provide this information to the Teaching Regulation Agency TRA so that they can certify that you are licensed to teach in your territory. If your Department of Education does not provide online checking, you will need to supply a letter from a recognised authority stating that you have completed the appropriate training, you have satisfied additional requirements including necessary experience, and that you are not banned from teaching in your country.
Once this process has been completed, you will receive a letter confirming you have been granted QTS, and you are ready to teach in England and Wales. Once you have gained QTS, you will become a Newly Qualified Teacher, and your training will continue for one year also known as the probationary period. Having QTS also means you will be paid on the British pay scale, which provides a minimum and maximum pay amount for teachers, depending on the local authority where you teach.
You will be eligible for performance reviews, and potential pay raises, depending on your demonstrated competency and achievements.
In the UK, your salary raises are closely linked with your performance, so the opportunities to achieve raises in pay are exciting recognition of hard work and dedication. Working in schools in the UK also comes with many opportunities to progress in your career, including becoming a department head, a leading practitioner, or even moving into a leadership role.
