 Help us make the Teach Portsmouth Jobs and Opportunities Fair a success.
The Early Years and Childcare team are looking ahead to May and the exciting opportunities this time of year brings. The team will be attending the Teach Portsmouth Jobs and Opportunities Fair on Monday 22 May from 10am - 2pm to promote a range of vacancies from across the city. We will be reaching out to settings in May, asking you to provide information on any vacancies you may have which we can take to the event and promote on our table.
In the meantime, we need your help to promote the event through newsletters, social media and on your website. We know that parents/carers are far more likely to be interested in the types of opportunities available at the event. We would appreciate any help you could give in promoting the event on your website, social media and newsletters, which in turn helps us reach more people. By working together, we can attract the right people, increasing the likelihood of qualified practitioners applying for vacancies.
The Teach Portsmouth Jobs and Opportunities Fair will be promoting a range of support and site roles in early years, primary, secondary and post-16 settings. Training providers will also be in attendance, offering delegates the chance to boost their qualifications through apprenticeships and short courses. Vacancies will vary between exhibitors but will include jobs such as as early years practitioners, learning support assistants, administrative staff, site managers and others.
The team who are organising the event have put together text for you to use. Feel free to copy and paste it. They have also included an image which you can use on social media too. Thank you for your support in helping us address recruitment and retention of staff in Portsmouth.
