Music Teachers?
|
|
| Is there much demand for overseas trained music teachers in the UK? I've looked at the national curriculum; how does the daily schedule compare for a music teacher coming from the states? Thanks! |

I don't know about the demand for OTT music teachers, but there is one in my school so it does happen. Worth a try anyway.
Bear in mind you will be paid as "non-qualified" no matter what your background, but the QTS process is not that difficult. You could possibly be qualified in about a year depending on how organized you are and how much support your school provides. |

| I agree with the previous poster that there are definitely music openings (there's one at my school currently, too), but must say that not all unqualified (meaning not qualified in the UK) teachers are paid at the unqualified rate. I was taken straight from the US, only qualified there (not in the US), and started out being paid very high on the QUALIFIED |

. . . (what did I hit -- it posted before I finished typing! LOL!) . . .
anyway, I started out being paid very high on the qualified scale from day one. It really depends on the school and what they are willing to do to get a well-qualified teacher with good experience and education. I began at almost £29,000, and living 30 minutes outside of London, that's a good wage. I can save about £800 (roughly $1,500) a month. No gripes!
ANyway, schools will vary . . . and music positions are out there! |

| So Whats the difference on Qualified and Non Qualified? And how does one become qualified? |
