There are ads everywhere in Australia asking for teachers in to go to the UK. It is also one of a handful of "shortage" industries in the UK.
However, at 43 and without British grandparents, I will have to obtain a WP (or at least my employer will)...unlike a large number of Australian teachers.
Does anyone have any idea to what extent this might limit my opportunities in the UK?

Why don't you come to Australia for experience? You won't have those problems and WA is screaming out for teachers....They have just employed 150 OS teachers to fill the gaps.
