Teacher jobs vary according to school type, grade and level of the job. There is a big variety of subjects to teach, from the classics of maths or sciences, to more artistic and differentiated subjects such as arts, sports or sociology. Especially in primary schools, teachers have to be flexible and teach across a range of subjects at the same time. But administrative tasks, out-of-school activities and important key competencies as self-motivation or stress tolerance are also important points. As a conclusion, teaching methods and daily tasks will depend mainly on the age of the pupils, the curriculum knowledge, the school's policies and the teacher's personality.
Becoming a qualified teacher means achieving the qualified teacher status (QTS). First of all, a degree is necessary and a GCSE grade C or equivalent in English AND maths. To be a teacher in primary school you need an additional degree in science. Before the start of teacher training, new arrivals have to pass a professional skills test. Applicants should always check if the curriculum has changed! For this it is helpful to visit regularly online communities and verify UK education policies. Furthermore, you have to decide which age range and subject you want to teach, 3-7 and 5-11 in primary or 11-18 year old teens in secondary school? Classroom experience or classroom observation can help you figuring out this point. Various teacher trainings exist today and you can choose which one suit you best. Currently, teacher training is offering interesting bursaries and scholarships for outstanding graduates (secondary and primary). There are many ways to become teacher today!
The salary of a teacher job depends on where and what he is performing. The starting salary lies between £22,000 and £28,000 (in inner London). Expert teachers can earn between £58,000 and £65,000. Generally, effective professionals or head teachers can earn even more (between £50,000 and £115,000). To put all in a nutshell, teacher's salary is one of the highest in the Education and Training departement.
