Help for Jobs

This centre actively seeks teachers for the busier summer months from mid-June until mid-September. Many former trainees have gained their first teaching experience working in our Vacation centre and residential or non-residential young learners' courses. Some are also employed in the main school on general intensive courses too.

On the CELTA course, we assist trainees by giving practical guidance on CVs, preparing for a typical interview and questions to ask before accepting a post in the UK or abroad. We have a jobs board advertising international vacancies and, being long-established as a training centre with a good local reputation for the quality of our graduates, Bournemouth schools often contact us during courses when they need new teachers.
