International-school teaching
BR-01Qualified bilingual and international-school teaching
Qualified teachers with relevant subject and age-range experience are the clearest fit for the school example reviewed. An English-language teaching certificate alone should not be assumed to meet an international school’s professional requirements.
Source-led route overview checked 2026-11-08; a recruitment page is not confirmation of a suitable open vacancy.
- Who should explore it
- St. Paul’s School states that teaching staff hold British, Brazilian or equivalent qualifications and must have appropriate subject expertise. Its recruitment information requires child-protection screening, including checks with former employers. These are school standards, not a statement that every language-teaching role in Brazil follows the same qualification route.
- Pay evidence
- The school describes remuneration and benefits but no comparable salary range is verified in this profile. Ask for the gross and expected net salary, housing arrangements, insurance, flights and any dependent benefits. Test savings using the actual offer and neighbourhood costs, and allow a margin for exchange-rate changes.
- Working pattern
- Confirm classroom hours, preparation, meetings, cover and paid holidays in the written offer; no national working-week estimate is established here.
- Length of placement
- Employer-specific; confirm start date, probation, renewal and notice before accepting.
- Work permission
- Brazil’s Ministry of Justice describes residence authorisation for work with an employment relationship under the relevant immigration resolutions. For prior residence authorisation where the worker is abroad, the interested Brazilian employer or institution applies through MigranteWeb. The official guidance distinguishes this from other work and academic categories. Have the employer confirm the correct category, consular steps and registration requirements for your contract.
- Support and benefits
- Confirm housing, flights, relocation support and medical cover in writing. These are not assumed to be included.

Documents, healthcare and remaining checks
- Professional recognition
- Match the employer’s stated criteria to your exact qualifications. Confirm any local registration or recognition separately; a UK credential does not itself grant immigration permission.
- Documents
- Confirm the authority’s current checklist and the employer’s safeguarding requirements; do not send originals or pay a recruiter until its identity and process are verified.
- Healthcare
- Obtain written evidence of cover, exclusions, emergency arrangements and any separate cover required for dependants.
- Initial costs
- Price document authentication, permit charges, travel, accommodation deposits and an arrival reserve for the actual location.
- First payment
- Not established by this overview. Confirm the first payroll date and which costs you must fund before reimbursement.
