About Southbank International School, Hampstead

About Southbank 

Southbank International School is a high achieving independent school based in central London. We aim to attract the best teaching and administrative staff, to maintain and build upon our successful reputation as a centre for excellent teaching and learning.

Southbank is a truly international school with a diverse student population of more than 70 nationalities. The school is based over three campuses in the centre of London. We seek to appoint staff who have the willingness to recognise the diversity that exists in the student body, to teach from a multi-cultural perspective and to practise the highest standards of professionalism.

We follow the International Baccalaureate curriculum and whilst previous experience with one or more of the programmes is an advantage it is not essential:

  • Primary Years Programme – Hampstead and Kensington (ages 3-11)
  • Middle Years Programme – Westminster (ages 11-16)
  • Diploma Programme – Westminster (ages 16-18/19)

Southbank prides itself on high standards, encouraging all students to make the most of their unique qualities and talents. Its central belief is that schools are an end in themselves as well as a means to progress into further education. Our aim is to put teaching and learning at the forefront of our mission to provide excellent services to the international community of students and teachers. The school has an exceptional teaching salary scale, and we endeavour to recruit teachers from across the world. Administrative and support staff are also offered competitive salaries and opportunities for career progression.
