EdEx are pleased to announce that we are now representing a Trust of Schools located across both London & Hertfordshire. We have been tasked in finding aspiring teachers across all subjects through both salaried and unsalaried teaching routes.

Key points about the scheme:

• Higher initial teaching load, typically around 15 periods per week
• Teaching load gradually increases to approximately 20 periods per week

• Opportunity to gain QTS with PGCE (optional opt-out available if required)
• Working at one School throughout - avoiding any conflict in different teaching styles (in turn reducing stress on teacher)
