New Hampshire Substitute Teacher Requirements

To substitute teach in Manchester, you must meet these New Hampshire state requirements:

Education Requirements

New Hampshire does not impose a statewide education requirement for substitute teachers; requirements are set at the district level. However, many districts require substitute teachers to hold at least a bachelor's degree. Some districts may accept candidates with an associate's degree or a minimum number of college credits, depending on local policy.

Background Check

All substitute teachers in New Hampshire are required to undergo a criminal background check, including fingerprinting, as mandated by state law. The background check is processed through the New Hampshire State Police and the FBI. Districts will not allow a substitute to begin working until the background check has been completed and cleared.

Age Requirements

Substitute teachers in New Hampshire must be at least 18 years of age. This minimum age requirement is standard across all districts in the state and ensures that individuals supervising students have reached the legal age of adulthood.

Application Process

Since New Hampshire does not have a statewide substitute teaching credential, applicants must apply directly to the school district or districts where they wish to work. Each district has its own application process, which typically includes submitting an application form, transcripts, references, and undergoing a background check. Some districts use third-party staffing agencies to manage substitute teacher placements.
