A big part of moving to London is finding accommodation, and Career Teachers is ready to help you with this!
There are lots of different options that will suit your accommodation needs. If you want to have something sorted before you move over we are in contact with independent landlords who offer short term room rentals to teachers. This is a great way to get settled, and have some time to look around London before choosing the ideal area for you!
You can also look on Spareroom.com and Arrive Homes which are excellent for house shares and will allow you to check out the different areas and prices London accommodation has to offer. An excellent way of making friends and quickly settling in to London life is to opt for a house share.
If you are coming to London with a partner or friend and would rather live just the two of you then you can also look on Spareroom.com, Zoopla, Prime Location or Rightmove which all offer studio, 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom flats, however this will most likely be a more expensive option.
