You can apply through our recruitment page on this link: https://fes.gov.mt/open-vacancies/
Each role requires different levels of qualifications and documents, however for every role you need the police conduct, reference letter or proof that you worked with FES in Skolasajf 2024.
What happens if by the end of the deadline I do not have the documents?
The system through which you apply will give you up to five days from the deadline of the call of application to upload any missing documents.
Age depends on the role you are applying for. Generally, all employees need to be 17 years of age by the end of 2025.
All staff will be expected to attend training organised by the Institute for Education (IFE). Only staff that work in a school on a full time basis (educational role), have a formal qualification in Education or are studying for a formal qualification in Education can be exempted from the training. More information about the training, such as payment, remuneration, duration and location will be given by IfE.
We suggest that you apply just the same and send an email to [email protected] with your details and the dates that you cannot work. However kindly keep in mind that placements are first given to those who can work the full eight weeks.
We don’t suggest that you apply from now, once you return back from your trip, you may apply if the Skola Sajf calls are still open.
You will first receive an email with the result and ranking obtained in the interview. Following this you will receive a placement by email and once you accept the placement, you will be sent the contract.
Should you decide that you want an alternative placement you need to send an email to reply to the email sent to you with a list of preferred localities. By doing so you would have lost the placement given to you. However kindly keep in mind that placements are done according to ranking and according to the needs of the centre.
Leave accumulates pro-rata according to the hours worked. However, if you work through all the core hours for the full eight weeks there will be an average of 16 hours of leave entitlement.
Skolasajf centres will be closed from Monday 11th August till Friday 15th August 2025.
Sick leave like Vacation leave is pro-rata and accumulates depending on the number of hours worked.
If you are sick and cannot report to work, it is important to email or call the centre coordinator informing him/her of the matter as early as possible, so that the centre coordinator would be in time to do alternative arrangements. You are also to send an email to the HR Department on [email protected] informing them of your sickness and of the address where you will be staying during your sickness. It is important to submit a blue medical certificate on your return to work to the centre coordinator / PER. The FES reserves the right to send the doctor to any sick employee. If the employee is not at home s/he has to provide proof that at the time the employee was at the doctor. If no proof is provided, the sick leave will not be paid.
You are bound by a definite contract of eight weeks. Ideally you work all of it since if you resign, it will negatively affect the operations of the centre. Should you still require resigning, kindly note that you need to provide one week notice, so to give enough time for a replacement to be found.
Some of our centres do offer service from 12:30 pm till 17:30 pm. In this case we suggest you apply through the normal call and email us on [email protected] and we will discuss with you a way forward.
