Can I work as an unqualified teacher in Birmingham?
Yes, you can work as an unqualified teacher in Birmingham, but it depends on the type of school. Independent schools and academies can hire unqualified teachers based on their specialist skills. However, in state schools, you must have Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) to teach in the classroom. If you’re not yet qualified, you can work as a teaching assistant in any school or pursue QTS through the assessment-only route if you have relevant experience. While unqualified teaching roles are available, they may limit your career progression compared to qualified positions.
