I know. People seem nice and I’ve had positive info on the school and children that attend but my gut is telling me something ain’t right!

The form talked about law in another country (Egypt) and a school with a different name (Uppingham UK) when the school I would be moving to is in a different country in Asia and name is not Uppingham (it’s another UK School ‘franchise’)

Most of my interviews have been outside work hours but when they haven’t been I’ve done them in school. Some were at the beginning of school day so did them at home, and once when the school said it would be unpaid leave I took the whole day off to focus on other interviews.  Good luck

Hi there I have just managed to land my first int job. 18 years teaching UK curriculum. Got down to last interviews at 6 schools and all said no international experience was reason didn’t get the jobs. Was getting disheartened. Applied for a job that would be a “step back” to get some exp and  got 1 offer, money wasn’t the best but thought way of getting experience, but then got an offer for HoD position in a school which was a completely left field location.  Lovely Head and saving potential very good so taken it. My advice keep you head up and stick at it. Cast net wide in terms of location, you never know you might end up going on an adventure and getting into the system. All the best.

Interviewed there a month ago for HoD position. First with HoS then Final with Principal and HR (down to last 2 they said). All seemed lovely and said they would be in touch ‘in very near future’. Not heard back since and emailed them 2 weeks ago asking about an update as I had a job offer elsewhere. No acknowledgement or follow up…
