Job overview

PE Teacher

Successful candidates will become members of the PE team, within a new and innovative educational hub in the heart of Dubai. At Citizens School, we call all of our teachers Mentors because we believe in focusing on learning rather than teaching.

PE Mentors work in conjunction with the Leader of PE and Activities to ensure that the PE curriculum is broad, sequential and relevant, taking account of all learners in their care. PE Mentors will place the highest importance on the well-being of all students, ensuring excellent levels of pastoral support and encouragement of every child. 

Mentors will model the values of Citizens School and create a culture where all members of the community learn, thrive and collaborate, ensuring all individuals are empowered and nurtured, as Citizens School becomes known as a centre of excellence.

If you would like to join and believe you can contribute to a truly different type of school, with a bespoke curriculum, ethos, supportive SLT and a strong school community, we would like to hear from you.


We Offer:

• A competitive tax free salary;

• Accommodation/accommodation allowance;

• Medical insurance;

• UAE employment visa;

• Annual flight allowance;

• A comprehensive and tailored professional learning and development programme for all staff;

Two free school places. Our intention is for this to be at Citizens School; however, we are aware that in the first year of operation this may not be possible. If that is the case, we will provide an allowance for one child, equivalent to that free place at Citizens School.


Citizens Tapestry requires us to live, embrace and lead in the following areas:

An open and growth mindset;

A fully inclusive approach to education;

Living as a global citizen, modelling understanding and empathy for all cultures and societies;

An appreciation of the importance of health and wellbeing;

Sustainable leadership;

Entrepreneurial spirit - continually innovating;

Advocating the use of digital technology in all aspects of school life;

The Application Procedure

Applicants are invited to submit a TES online application including an updated CV and a letter of application, addressed to the Principal, Mr. Ciaran Cunningham-Watson. Please also include contact details of three professional referees, one of whom is your current Head Teacher/Principal. 

Early applications are encouraged and interviews will be arranged for suitable candidates as received. We reserve the right to make appointments before the deadline date. All successfully shortlisted candidates will be notified of interview dates before 2nd April 2022.

Citizens School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.
