“My New Term makes the process of applying for a teaching job as easy as it can be. The platform is both intuitive and easy to use. Having a uniform online application process is a huge time saver compared with having to fill out bespoke application forms for each job. I appreciated the updates on the progress of my application, an additional element to the usual application process. I would certainly use MNT again as I will simply need to update my current profile and apply.”
“It has been great to digitally apply for a post.
I really like that you can change the options to give consent for references not to be contacted before an interview as this can always lead to a difficult conversation having to happen!
I think its great being able to see that the school has downloaded my application through my new term and its reassuring that my application has been received by the school.”
“Really easy and simply to use. Much more forward thinking from the old applications councils would offer for school staff.
Already recommended to staff in current school.”
“It is my first time using My new Term and I found the website user friendly and set out in a methodical and useful order. I particularly like the job recommendations and overall I am impressed with My new Term.”

Hi Carol,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are pleased to hear you found the process mostly very good.
All of the standard information (employment history, qualifications, etc) is saved on your profile. When you apply for a role, you are required to complete a personal statement. The reason you have to do this each time is because the school requires you to refer to the person specification and detail how you meet the specific requirements of the role and why you want to work at their organisation. No two personal statements should ever been the same - it should be personal to the school and the role you are applying for.
Wishing you the best of luck with your recent applications and please do reach out if we can be of any further assistance.
“This website is a fantastic resource in helping individuals who are looking for work. The application process is it to use and assists people to apply for work work who have been out of employment for a while. The site is clearly managed and maintained with great effort.”

Thank you for your review Denise. We are pleased to hear you found MyNewTerm easy to use. I can see the schools have updated the status for each of your applications. As schools often recieve a high number of applications it is not often possible for schools to provide feedback at application stage. If you get in touch with us we would be happy to take a look and advise on things which may support your application in future. The MyNewTerm team
“I found it to be a good system. Spend a bit of time making your template and just go from there. saves a lot of time. My only downside is most of my education is pre 2000 and I couldn't get those dates in.”

“I’ve found MyNewTerm very easy to use and it has all jobs related to working in schools. I’d recommend anyone wanting to work in a school to register.”

“When I got stuck in the application process there was a number I could ring to get support. I also used the chat box to get advice on how to complete my application, which made the process a lot smoother as I had a few difficulties. The staff were very efficient, warm, professional and helpful.
Even though it doesn't feel nice to get rejected applications back, it actually lifts the anxiety of having to wait for an answer. So I like the fact that I'm immediately informed if I havent been put through the next stage of the selection process because it enables me to move on and continue searching elsewhere.”
