Job overview

TEACHER OF ENGLISH LITERATURE (FIRST LANGUAGE)

We are seeking to appoint an experienced, enthusiastic and inspiring English teacher (“mainstream” or first language) up to and including the IBDP from August 2024. The ability to offer a second subject, particularly a Humanity or EAL, would be a considerable advantage.

The post will probably be non-residential but could be combined with a residential boarding tutor’s position for the right candidate. Applicants should therefore indicate their interest and experience in this possibility.

UK APPLICANTS

UK nationals should be aware that regulations to obtain a work permit are both lengthy and considerably tighter for third-state (such as UK) nationals than they are for most Europeans. Although it is possible that we will appoint a UK national, preference will be given to candidates possessing a Swiss residence permit or an EU/EFTA passport.

About Le Regent International School

Le Régent International School is a 4-18 independent co-educational boarding and day school.  Founded in 2015, it is the youngest and the most modern international boarding school in Switzerland. Le Régent is a  dynamic and growing IB World School. We provide a multilingual and multicultural educational environment to over 250 students from 45 countries.

The school is committed to holistic educational principles, combining demanding academic curricula with extensive sporting, arts and public-speaking programmes, leading to IGCSEs in Grade 10 and the International Baccalaureate (or the Régent Graduation Diploma) in IB2. Language options are particularly strong and many students speak at least two languages fluently. Le Régent International School is an official examination centre for the IB Diploma Programme, SATs, IELTS and Edexcel IGCSEs.

Located in Crans-Montana in the Valais canton, Le Régent’s Outdoor Education programme comprising frequent expeditions, wild camping, ski-touring and cross-country skiing, takes full advantage of its stunning location to provide students with the personal skills and understanding of the environment that will serve them well in the future.

Our boarding school in the sunny Swiss canton of Valais, is the ideal place for students to become all they can be amongst inspiring students and educators in a family-like atmosphere.

At the same time, Le Régent is proud of its commitment to contemporary pedagogy. It is an Apple Distinguished school and a large proportion of its faculty are accomplished and intelligent users of technology inside and outside the classroom. An accredited IB school, Le Régent paves the way to the most promising universities in the world while respecting each student’s specific interests and concentrating on their strengths.

Who students are today is of great importance to us. However, who they want to become and how they want to shape the world of tomorrow is even more important.
