Our teachers work in schools and buildings across the city in many capacities, supporting students of all ages who have a wide variety of educational needs. They may teach regular programming or specialize in areas such as languages, career and technology studies or special education.
Edmonton Public Schools recruits teachers to a pool of teaching applicants. This means applicants are not able to apply for positions at specific schools. When a school has a vacant teaching position, a Human Resources consultant refers qualified applicants from the teacher applicant pool to the principal for consideration.
If you are added to the teacher applicant pool, you can also request to work as a substitute teacher. However, this work is based on the needs of the Division.
Teachers are represented by the Alberta Teachers' Association Local 37.
Our online application system will be unavailable from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m., December 17. Thank you for your patience while we complete this regular maintenance.
We will be accepting applications for all elementary and secondary teaching positions from December 7 to December 18, 2024.
If you applied in November, do not submit a second application.
We will accept applications from:
Note: University students who will complete their second student teaching practicum during the Winter 2025 term must wait and apply in April 2025.
We welcome all applicants, and are focused on finding qualified applicants who bring a range of skills, perspectives and lived experiences. We’re eager to learn about you, and what you can bring to Edmonton Public Schools.
Read our commitment to diversity and inclusivity.
