Wandsworth:

WANDSWORTH is an inner London Borough only 20 minutes from the heart of London.  With a population of over 270,000, Wandsworth is diverse and multicultural.  This is reflected in our classrooms with almost a third of our pupils speaking English as a second language.

We have everything here in Wandsworth, from the bustling areas of Clapham Junction and Tooting to the tranquility of Battersea Park and the regenerated Thames riverside.

The teaching and learning of our 30,000 children and young adults is at the hearing of what we do in our 80 nursery, primary, secondary and special schools and pupil referral units.  To build upon our first class reputation and many government standard awards in education, we need exceptional teaching and support staff to continue our good work and encourage our pupils.

We support and nurture our teaching and support staff with excellent development opportunities that will give you the chance to shine.  Whether you are starting your career as a newly qualified teacher or looking to continue your career in Wandsworth, we can help.

Teaching and Support Staff Recruitment

Schools’ recruitment is not undertaken centrally in Wandsworth, but the individual schools advertise and recruit themselves.  All our schools make use of the Council’s website (www.wandsworth.gov.uk) and advertise in our Vacancy section. 

We are hoping to start advertising on the DCSF Schools’ Recruitment Service during the academic year 2009/10, and further details of this will be available in due course on our website at www.teachinwandsworth.com
For further information please contact the Schools’ Recruitment Team on 020 8871 7590 or e-mail schoolrecruitment@wandsworth.gov.uk.
