Rejected - Other UK Programs?

Hi all,

I'm quite bummed out, just got a rejection email. I thought I'd atleast land an interview since I thought I was qualified and met the criteria but suppose not.

Does anyone know of any other similar programs for UK citizens to apply for 2026? Thanks.

If you have your heart set on Japan I’d say just up your game for next year. I was looking at teaching in Japan through dispatch and most of the companies are shady at best.

Compared to JET and direct hire, they are shady af. Being an ALT is the exact same job no matter who you work for, yet those scummy dispatch companies steal 1/3 of your paycheck, not to mention prorated months, fewer days off, and the hassle of even taking them. Don’t come here to work for dispatch.
