School Job Vacancies

These jobs can also be found on the DfE Teaching Vacancies website 

NOTE: from September 2026, Guardian Jobs is no longer offering a recruitment advertising service and has ceased operations. As a result, Southwark Schools HR will no longer advertise vacancies through Guardian Jobs, and schools should not submit any new recruitment advertisements for publication on the platform. 

We have also since updated our pricing structure to reflect this.

Teachers - thinking of returning to teaching? DfE Support 

The DfE is offering free support to former teachers, primary and secondary, considering returning to teaching in England. If you are a former teacher, or you know of any former teachers, wishing to return to teaching, the DfE expert advisers can provide support every step of the way.

A return to teaching adviser can help with:

• the application process, such as writing a personal statement and preparing for an interview

• accessing courses to enhance their subject knowledge

• finding teaching vacancies that are right for you and that suit your skills, ambition and situation, utilising the valuable skills you have developed outside of teaching

• on-going support in the first few months in your new role

Sign up for a return to teaching adviser, or read the latest guidance and advice for returning teachers on the return to teaching website, by clicking here. You can find information on a range of areas, such as curriculum, pensions and flexible working.
