If you’re looking to emigrate to Canada as a High School Teacher you’re in luck! High school teachers are in demand right across Canada and you may be able to secure a Canadian Permanent Residency Visa either with or without a job offer.
No doubt you will have read online that having a job offer to move to Canada is a prerequisite to accessing the Express Entry process but as a High School Teacher, you also have other options to secure your Canada Visa from the start.
For starters, High School Teachers are eligible to apply to immigrate to Canada under the Canadian Government’s Immigration program due to the demand for High School Teachers in Canada being so great they have included the occupation on the targeted occupations list, known as the NOC list (National Occupation Code List).
The code for High School Teachers on the NOC is 4031
This is great news for qualified High School Teachers the world over hoping to live and work in Canada.
Express Entry for Canada is not a visa class at all, it is simply the method (or database) that Canadian Immigration uses to select the right candidates for a permanent residency visa and in that case, as a High School Teacher looking to immigrate to Canada we’ll be looking at the Federal Skilled Worker visa and Provincial Nominee program.
High School Teachers from all over the world are eligible to make an Express Entry for Canada Residency providing they have the right skills, experience and qualifications in their home country.

How to Emigrate to Canada as a High School Teacher
The first stage in your Canadian immigration process is to calculate your Canada Immigration points for Express Entry using the Canadian Comprehensive Ranking System.
CRS Points are awarded for (amongst other things)
Age
Qualifications
English ability
French ability
Your partner’s skills
Work experience
As well as providing you with important CRS points these factors also count towards your overall Immigration Points score which must equal or exceed a total of 67
Once you receive an ITA (Invitation to apply) from Canadian Immigration as a result of your Express Entry application you’ll only have 60 days in which to lodge a formal application so under no circumstances should you lodge an Express Entry application ‘claiming’ to have certain points without first having all of your points verified through different testing, education equivalence certificates and skilled trades assessments.
Once you are invited to apply for your Canada Visa you cannot go back and have these things verified retrospectively, they must be done before you claim any points for them and given that your express entry profile is only valid for one year it makes sense to present the best possible case right from the start.
To work as a High School Teacher in Canada, a teacher must be registered with the relevant teaching association of the particular province. Your skills and qualifications will be assessed and your application will be accredited in that province. We are here to help you with the accreditation process.
