This section is designed to make leaving South Africa to come and live and teach in the UK easy (well easier!).
At Axcis, we have teachers from South Africa here to help prepare you for what lies ahead – we know where you have come from and know what changes you are likely to face in and outside of the classroom.
London, England and Europe are exciting places to come to – especially if it is your first time out of the Southern Hemisphere. Axcis understands you may like to secure a long term position or to have the flexibility to travel and teach – just let us know what your requirements are.
Below are the Key Steps you will need to take before leaving South Africa. Click on the headings for a full explanation.
