Practice Teacher/Clinical Educator School Nursing
Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The role involves providing practice education, supervision and clinical support to student nurses and qualified staff working in school nursing services. Candidates would normally need registered nurse status, relevant school nursing or community nursing experience, and a recognised practice education or teaching qualification. The post requires strong knowledge of safeguarding children, public health, health promotion and professional standards. The successful candidate is expected to assess learning needs, support students in clinical practice, maintain accurate records, work closely with universities and multidisciplinary teams, and promote safe, evidence-based care. Excellent communication, organisation, mentoring and leadership skills are essential, together with the ability to work independently across school and community settings.
Can I work in the UK?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: NHS nurses, doctors and allied health get a Health and Care Worker visa (about 3 weeks, no health surcharge); care workers lost this route on 22 July 2025.
Before you apply: Nurses, doctors and most allied health staff must be registered or licensed locally before they start: expect checks on your degree and licence, often an English test, and often an exam or an assessment. Ask the employer who handles it and how long it takes. Most pharma and device office jobs do not need it.
Watch for: Pay follows the NHS pay bands and is usually at least GBP 25,000. Nurses and allied health also need UK professional registration; care workers cannot be sponsored from abroad.
