The government’s free teacher jobs board will be able to automatically copy job adverts from academy trusts’ websites under a new scheme piloted with England’s largest chain.
The Department for Education has revealed its teaching vacancies service has been trialling “ATS integration”, which pulls through vacancies automatically from a trust’s application tracking system (ATS) to the national website.
The scheme was piloted with United Learning after trusts asked if the DfE could make it “quicker to bulk upload vacancies”, according to a blog post from outreach and engagement manager Will Bourke.
He said the aim was “to reduce the time it takes for hiring staff to post vacancies, streamline recruitment, and do it with no cost to the trust – all helping put money back into the classroom”.
