"There is a great spirit at Irish, I have enjoyed playing with the boys and the supporters have been fantastic," said Staniforth.
"I'd like to thank the coaches and management for their understanding and hope to see the club in the Heineken Cup next season."
London Irish has been working with Scott on the timing of his departure and has apparently been active in the player recruitment market in anticipation of his return home.
The club expects to confirm the signing of a new winger shortly.
