How iCan Teach UK Supports You Before and After You Arrive
How iCan Teach UK supports candidates | iCan Teach UK
At iCan Teach UK, we don’t just match overseas teachers with schools — we walk with you every step of the way, from your first interview to your first day in the classroom (and beyond).
Whether you’re coming from South Africa, Jamaica, or elsewhere, relocating to teach in the UK is a big move. That’s why we’ve built a comprehensive support process to make the transition smoother, more informed, and far less stressful.
Here’s how we support you — before and after you arrive in the UK.
Before You Arrive: Setting You Up for Success
1. Personalised Interview Coaching
We don’t just book interviews — we prepare you to ace them.
You’ll get:
- 1-on-1 coaching tailored to UK interview formats
- Practice answering safeguarding and scenario-based questions
- Feedback from educators who understand what UK schools expect
2. Visa Process Guidance
Navigating the Skilled Worker visa application can be overwhelming — but we simplify it.
Our team will help you:
- Understand your visa eligibility
- Gather the right documents (CoS, TB test, police checks, etc.)
- Submit your application correctly and on time
3. Full Compliance & Documentation Checks
UK schools must meet strict safeguarding requirements — and so must you.
We assist with:
- Enhanced DBS checks
- International police clearance
- Reference checks
- Right-to-work verification
- QTS or ECCTIS/NARIC assessments (if needed)
4. School Introductions & Pre-Arrival Briefings
Once your role is confirmed, we ensure you feel connected to your new school before you even land.
You’ll receive:
- School overview and contact introduction
- Details on school culture, expectations, and policies
- Guidance on what to bring and how to prepare
After You Arrive: Helping You Settle In

- Support with setting up a UK bank account and SIM card
- Guidance on registering with a GP and local council
6. Classroom Integration & Professional Transition
Teaching in the UK can differ from what you’re used to — and that’s okay.
