Can I Find Teaching Jobs in Peterborough with Visa Sponsorship?

At present, most of the teaching and support roles we see advertised in Peterborough do not offer visa sponsorship. Schools in this area, including primary, secondary, and specialist settings, generally require candidates to already have the appropriate right to work in the UK.

If you’re looking for positions with visa sponsorship, here are a few tips:

  • Check each job advert carefully for visa eligibility details. Sponsorship is usually highlighted upfront if available.
  • Consider national job boards like TES, Reed, and the GOV.UK Teaching Vacancies site—these sometimes feature roles across the UK where sponsorship is considered, but these tend to be rare in the Peterborough region.
  • Connect with larger Multi-Academy Trusts or independent schools, as they are more likely to sponsor overseas candidates, although opportunities remain limited.

If you already have a visa or right to work, you’ll find a far wider range of roles open to you, from classroom teachers to specialist and support staff. If sponsorship is essential for you, let us know when you contact the Mana Education team so we can advise on your best options and any upcoming roles that may suit your circumstances.

Important Information: Visa Sponsorship

Please note that none of the current teaching or school support roles listed above offer visa sponsorship. If you require visa sponsorship to work in the UK, these posts, including positions such as midday supervisor, office manager, class teacher, playworker, school business manager, and learning assistant, are not eligible for sponsorship.

All vacancies are open to candidates with the right to work in the UK, and unfortunately, applications needing visa sponsorship will not be considered at this time.

If you’re an overseas-trained professional interested in UK teaching roles, we recommend reviewing government guidelines on skilled worker visas or exploring positions with schools that are able to sponsor international applicants. For now, these Peterborough roles are best suited for UK residents or those already holding valid work permits.

Tailor Your Job Search with Custom Filters

Searching for your ideal teaching role can be so much easier—and faster—when you narrow it down to exactly what suits you. Mana Education offers a range of filters to help you find the perfect vacancy for your skills, interests, and career aspirations.

You can filter roles by:

  • Visa sponsorship availability
  • Type of job: Whether you're looking for a classroom teaching position, leadership roles like head of department or headteacher, teaching assistant posts, HLTA, cover supervisor, or school support staff roles (think administration, site management, pastoral care, IT, and more).
  • School phase: Nursery, primary, secondary, sixth form, or all-through schools.
  • Subject area: From English and maths to design technology, languages, sciences, performing arts, social sciences, and beyond.
  • Experience level: Filter for positions that welcome early career teachers.
  • School type: Academies, maintained schools, faith schools, or specialist SEN environments.
  • Working pattern: Full-time, part-time, or job share—choose the hours and flexibility you need.
  • Application method: Look for jobs with a streamlined, online application process so you can apply quickly and easily.

With these filters, you can spend less time sifting through unsuitable positions and more time applying to roles that are a genuine match.
