We are proud of the high standard of education provision on offer in our schools.  We have 39 primary schools, 4 comprehensive schools, one 3-16 school and 2 3-19 schools. Our schools offer a variety of employment opportunities ranging from support staff,  teaching staff and school leadership roles.

To build on the excellent standards in our schools we need exceptional people to nurture and inspire our pupils to achieve their goals. If you would like to reap the reward of making a positive difference to the lives of our pupils then education is the career for you and we would really like to hear from you.

New teacher?

If you are a new teacher who wants to start your induction as a newly qualified teacher here in Wales why not come to Ceredigion to teach in one of our schools? You will have the opportunities and the challenge to be the best teacher you can be. Schools where you can inspire, create opportunities and guide the pupils you teach towards true success. The help and guidance in schools as well as the professional development opportunities available to Ceredigion teachers will help you to achieve this.

The principles of a Curriculum for Wales underpin the life of every school in Ceredigion. By working in partnerships with pupils, parents, teachers, school staff and the local authority we ensure that the four purposes are promoted in all aspects of school life in the County.

Working closely with the early education teacher partnerships we ensure that the transition from trainee to newly qualified teacher is supportive, effective and provides valuable and informative experiences for all.
