Recruitment fairs
OTSA works in partnership with Oxford Brookes University, the University of Oxford and the OTT SCITT to organise annual recruitment fairs.
These recruitment and networking events are open to state-funded nursery, primary, secondary and special schools who are partners with us or the universities.
They are an amazing opportunity for schools and trainee teachers to meet in person to discuss current and future employment opportunities.
Schools do not need to know their recruitment needs at the time of the event - they are an opportunity to for schools to 'sell' themselves to current trainees who, having met you and heard about your school, might then make an application later in the year or even future years.
Of course, if you do have vacancies then it is a great opportunity to meet potential applicants and we know plenty of schools have gone on to employ people they met at our previous recruitment fairs.
Our aim is to provide an opportunity to encourage as many of our trainee teachers as possible to embark on a successful career in a partnership school, benefiting the community in which they trained.
Attendance of partner schools and trusts is by invitation only. If you haven't received your invitation please drop us a line.
There is a small charge as a contribution towards the cost of refreshments and administration.
