Eligibility Criteria for International Relocation Payments in the UK:


To qualify for this advantageous scheme, teachers and trainees must meet the following criteria:

  • Be coming to England to work or train in the 2023 to 2024 academic year

  • Not be already living in the UK

The international relocation payment of £10,000 is specially designated for non-UK teachers and trainers in the fields of physics and languages. International relocation payments would provide financial assistance to trainees and teachers from across the globe who are willing to come to work and train in English schools.

The payment is designed to cover:

  • The costs of visas

  • Immigration health surcharge

  • Other relocation expenses


The scope of the scheme encompasses both teachers and trainees who are eager to contribute their expertise to English schools. This ground-breaking initiative is being launched as a pilot program for the academic year 2023-24, with applications set to open in the forthcoming Autumn. This scheme would work distinctively for teachers, salaried trainees, and fee-paying trainees. Thus, let us understand the procedure to apply for the scheme for different groups.


Application Process for Different Groups:

  1. Fee-Paying Trainees: Trainees enrolled in fee-paying courses are not required to apply for the international relocation payment. Instead, training providers will directly disburse payments to these trainees, along with any applicable grants. The relocation payment will be received by fee-paying trainees at the conclusion of their first academic term.

  2. Salaried Trainees: For salaried trainees, the application process is straightforward. They can apply for the international relocation payment individually. Starting from Autumn 2023, after their arrival in the UK and commencement of their training, salaried trainees can submit their applications to the Department for Education (DfE). Successful applicants in this category will receive their payment around the conclusion of the first term.

  3. Teachers: Likewise, teachers planning to relocate to the UK for the academic year 2023-24 can also apply for the international relocation payment through the DfE. The application process for teachers mirrors that of salaried trainees. Once their application is approved, eligible teachers can expect to receive the relocation payment around the end of their first term.



The UK's £10,000 international relocation payment initiative is a golden opportunity for Language and Physics teachers around the world. Whether you're a seasoned educator or a passionate trainee, this program is tailor-made to help you kickstart your teaching journey in the UK. By offering financial support and a warm welcome, the British government is reiterating its commitment to fostering a diverse and globally enriched education system. The applications for this program open in the autumn of 2023, so mark your calendars and take the first step toward a rewarding teaching adventure in the United Kingdom.

Call to Action: If you're ready to embark on a transformative teaching journey in the UK and have questions about the international relocation payment, don't hesitate to reach out to the Department for Education at teach.inengland@education.gov.uk. The clock is ticking, and a world of exciting opportunities awaits – seize them today!
