Schools across the Emirates are still trying to fill vacancies, despite many recruiting new teachers and staff for the new academic year.
Start dates for the vacant positions are from September through to January next year.
According to Tes — formerly Times Educational Supplement — one of the largest job sites for the education sector, 133 jobs are on offer in the country.
Major school groups in the Emirates, including Gems Education, Taaleem, Aldar and several independent schools, have advertised jobs.
What jobs are on offer?
The website says there are 109 teaching posts available, 16 non-teaching and support staff positions and 12 leadership roles.
The majority of vacancies are in Dubai, with more than 65 on offer, followed by Abu Dhabi. The remainder are in the rest of the Emirates, including Ras Al Khaimah and Ajman.
There are several opportunities advertised for primary schoolteachers, where recruiters are looking for an immediate start this month.
Subject teachers also have a wide variety of opportunities, with jobs offered in computer science, science, English, economics and business studies, among others.
Some schools are looking for inclusion specialists and counsellors too, but positions for school principals, vice-principals and year heads are few in number.

Why your domicile status is important
Your UK residence status is assessed using the statutory residence test. While your residence status – ie where you live - is assessed every year, your domicile status is assessed over your lifetime.
Your domicile of origin generally comes from your parents and if your parents were not married, then it is decided by your father. Your domicile is generally the country your father considered his permanent home when you were born.
UK residents who have their permanent home ("domicile") outside the UK may not have to pay UK tax on foreign income. For example, they do not pay tax on foreign income or gains if they are less than £2,000 in the tax year and do not transfer that gain to a UK bank account.
A UK-domiciled person, however, is liable for UK tax on their worldwide income and gains when they are resident in the UK.

Teaching your child to save
Pre-school (three - five years)
You can’t yet talk about investing or borrowing, but introduce a “classic” money bank and start putting gifts and allowances away. When the child wants a specific toy, have them save for it and help them track their progress.
Early childhood (six - eight years)
Replace the money bank with three jars labelled ‘saving’, ‘spending’ and ‘sharing’. Have the child divide their allowance into the three jars each week and explain their choices in splitting their pocket money. A guide could be 25 per cent saving, 50 per cent spending, 25 per cent for charity and gift-giving.
Middle childhood (nine - 11 years)
Open a bank savings account and help your child establish a budget and set a savings goal. Introduce the notion of ‘paying yourself first’ by putting away savings as soon as your allowance is paid.
Young teens (12 - 14 years)
Change your child’s allowance from weekly to monthly and help them pinpoint long-range goals such as a trip, so they can start longer-term saving and find new ways to increase their saving.
Teenage (15 - 18 years)
Discuss mutual expectations about university costs and identify what they can help fund and set goals. Don’t pay for everything, so they can experience the pride of contributing.
Young adulthood (19 - 22 years)
Discuss post-graduation plans and future life goals, quantify expenses such as first apartment, work wardrobe, holidays and help them continue to save towards these goals.
