Graduate teaching candidates for schools
Attract and retain your future teachers.
As a school leaders you will be acutely aware of the challenges faced with recruiting fully qualified teachers where and when you need them. In specific subject areas QTS’s are conspicuous by their shortage in numbers and recruiting when you need it most can be a huge challenge and place enormous pressures on the school and your teaching staff
Castles Educations work directly with schools to place top post-graduate talent with degrees in non-teaching disciplines to solve staffing shortfalls with eager, energetic and intelligent graduates who want to make a difference and learn on the job.
Many such candidates go on to choose teaching, building successful long term careers, following sampling first-hand what teaching and working in education can offer.
There is a wealth of teaching and teaching assistant talent across the population of post-grads and these candidates can make a real difference to the lives of pupils at your school and to the operation of your school.
Our high calibre graduates work as teaching assistants and in similar support roles while they gain QTS through an assessment only route. We will work with you to guide these enthusiastic graduates on their journey to becoming teachers.
All graduates must past a rigorous screening and selection process by our team of highly experienced senior school leaders and recruitment experts.
Be ahead of the game and plan for future academic years by engaging highly qualified, intelligent and committed graduates. We help you craft a bespoke 2 Year Graduate Training Programme designed to meet your schools needs and address your future staffing issues.
We source the best graduates who are passionate about becoming teachers and improving the lives of young people.
They can fulfil a variety of roles including:
- Teaching Assistants.
- Learning Behaviour Mentors.
- Academic Mentors.
- Pastoral Support – such as Assistant Heads of Year / House.
- Subject specific tutoring (1-1 or small group).
- Intervention (1-1, small group and/or in-class support).
- Exam Preparation.

Non-teaching degree graduates for schools
Training graduates in school will enable you to attract, retain and secure your own ‘Talent Pipeline’. whilst ensuring your teachers of tomorrow learn the practice of their art in the way you would wish them to learn.
Create a motivated and stable staff team by supporting graduates in becoming qualified teachers.
We provide a continuous supply of highly qualified & motivated graduates that will enable you to grow & shape your own workforce who can achieve Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) at the end of our 2 year programme.
Our graduate teaching assistants will quickly be ready to handle your daily cover needs, eradicating your supply costs and ensuring full accountability for cover lessons.
We can provide intensive, frequent, high quality school-based coaching and mentoring.
We can provide HR and payroll support for all graduates, enabling you to focus solely on managing your new talent effectively.
As with all our products and services, the graduate training programme can be tailored to meet your needs.
Financial example
This example is based on using 5 graduates as teaching assistants and assumes an average of 2 supply teachers per day throughout the year at a rate of £180 each.
