UK
CITIZEN'S ADVICE:
No one resource can promise to tell you all you need to
know about living and teaching in the UK. But Justteachers
have tried to cover it all!
These are perhaps the useful things to remember:
- Justteachers have provided a list of just about every agency which can help you.
- Every UK agency has a label to explain what they do in a few words.
- Most UK agencies have telephone numbers and websites.
- Some of these British agencies are governmental, and some are NGOs (Non Governmental Agencies).
- In general all of these agencies operate throughout the UK - not just in a small area.
- If you only remember one organisation name, then go to CAB (Citizens Advice Bureaux), because they should then point you in the right direction. CAB offices are in most towns and
cities around Britain.
- Other agencies like the Resource Information Service at www.ris.org.uk will give you many more links, so they are gateways to people who will help you.
- Most of these British agencies will not charge you.
- Always ask if any charge is involved. This should be explained very clearly to you. And, if there is a charge, you should sign a paper before you are given the service!
- As a general rule these agencies will not report you to the police or security services. That isn't their job, and the UK is not a police state. They'll just advise you.
