Teaching in Blackpool

Blackpool is a forward thinking authority in a vibrant location. Blackpool has a variety of schools, academies and multi-academy trusts that cater for the diverse range of needs of our children here in Blackpool.

Teaching in the town is both challenging and rewarding and Blackpool Council’s children’s services recognise the need to build upon innovative multi-agency approaches to ensure that the provision for our pupils is at least ‘Good.’

Blackpool pupils need committed individuals to join us on our journey of aspiration and excellence.

Initiatives such as Headstart provide an exciting opportunity for teachers, staff and parents to work together to improve outcomes for Blackpool children.

Blackpool is looking for both newly qualified teachers ( NQTs) and experienced teachers to help build an aspirational future for Blackpool children.

When it comes to taking care of teachers in Blackpool, we are proud of what we do:

• An iconic coastal location with excellent links to picturesque countryside and cosmopolitan cities;
• Support networks for NQTs and experienced teachers;
• Flexible working opportunities;
• A diverse professional development programme;
