Why Apply Now?
Most schools have already opened the 2026/27 year, so the roles on the board this week are immediate or end-of-September starts rather than next August's pipeline. That means shorter hiring cycles: a school with a gap in its timetable interviews within days and decides quickly. Applying now puts your profile in front of hiring panels before these mid-year vacancies close.
