Description

Teachers with at least one year of experience are required for a local fee paying school offering a US curriculum and located in the heart of Abu Dhabi. Although staff and curriculum profiles are more international, teachers who wish to apply to this school must understand that it caters for a mainly local / expatriate Arab population of students and be able to demonstrate cultural tolerance and differentiate work on an english language basis. This is not a typical western expatriate school and teachers must adjust their expectations accordingly; management style, processes, timing, resource availability and school facilities will be different compared to a western international school. This assignment will be a challenge for some; classroom management can be tough in higher grades.

Many teachers placed in this school have settled well embracing the challenge and experience; others have found it very difficult. The school will certainly offer a solid introduction to more local international education at the more challenging end of the spectrum. Teachers from the UK, Ireland, USA and Canada are all welcome to apply but only single and married teaching couples can be considered because of shared accommodation or a difficult cultural fit for western children.

Highlights

Abu Dhabi is a great place to live and work; being located near the centre offers easy access to many amenities and attractions without the worry of expensive travel.
