Government-Funded Recruitment 2023 for Non-UK Teachers
The UK Government, under the Department of Education, has unveiled an opportunity for non-UK language and physics trainees and teachers. They are now eligible to apply for International Relocation Payments (IRP), which were previously available exclusively to applicants from around the world who were willing to relocate for teaching positions in English schools.
The International Relocation Payment (IRP) is financially backed by the UK government and offers non-UK trainees and teachers a sum of £10,000, in addition to a bursary or scholarship, to aid in their relocation. This financial assistance is designed to cover the costs associated with moving to the United Kingdom for the purpose of training and working as a language and physics teacher.
