"Think Twice Before Relocating": Teachers Willing To Move To UK Get Tempting Offer Of GH¢142k

• The UK government's announcement of international relocation payment to immigrants has gone viral in Nigeria
• The UK is seeking to pay about N9.3 million (GH¢142,186.89) to qualified teachers of physics and languages who are willing to relocate to the country
• But some Nigerians on social media have said teachers should think twice before taking the IRP offer because teaching in the UK may not be easy

The UK government recently announced its plan to pay international teachers N9.3 million to relocate to the country.

Since the International Relocation Payment (IRP) was announced on the UK government website on September 4, it has been reposted by many Nigerians on Twitter.

The IRP, which is open to only foreign teachers, will see those interested get £10,000, an equivalent of about N9.3 million ((GH¢142,186.89).

The money will cover the costs of visas, the immigration health surcharge and other relocation expenses.

Website to apply for UK international relocation payment

Those more favoured by the IRP are physics and language teachers, and applications are open on the UK government's international relocation payment application website.

While reposting the UK relocation opportunity on Twitter, a Nigerian man, Wizarab, said teaching is one of the most challenging jobs in the UK.

His words:

"UK is offering £10k relocation fee for anyone that wants to migrate to the UK to teach. Note that teaching kids is one of the hardest jobs in the UK. There is no respect and you have no power of the kids. Just a friendly advice before you rush it."
