Does anyone have any insight/information regarding the ability of foreign teachers to obtain teaching positions within the South African school system (public, private, or international schools)?
My husband, a South African citizen, and I, a US citizen, will be relocating our family to Cape Town in late August. I am a certified teacher in the United States and would like to continue teaching when we relocate. Although I will initially be coming to South Africa on a spousal visa, I will be applying for permanent residency.
Thanks,
Anna

You might be best approaching international schools that follow the curriculum you have experience in teaching. Also what subjects and age groups do you teach?
As your husband is a South African citizen you shouldn't have too much difficulty getting a spousal visa with a work endorsement. You can read more about the process on the Visas for South Africa pages.
