In an e-mail sent out to those would-be teachers already registered with the Training and Development Agency (TDA), candidates are informed of the following advantages of the new system:
- Find suitable jobs - Search by your job preferences and apply online
- Saves you time – Your details automatically pre-filled on new applications
- Let employers come to you – Create your Talent Profile to join the talent pool
- Receive job alerts – Find out about suitable vacancies as soon as they come up
- Instant communication with schools - receive confirmation that your application has been received, every time.
Clearly the system is in its early stages (which possibly explains why there are currently a mere four teaching jobs live on the website!) but with 52 local authorities, representing more than 8,000 schools and 32 academies already interested in using it, the process of applying for jobs in the education sector looks set to change.
Friday squabbles in the staffroom over the Times Educational Supplement may soon be a thing of the past!
