Class Teacher- Reception

An exciting opportunity for a suitably qualified and experienced Early Years (Reception) teacher to play a key part in developing The British College of Andorra (britishcollegeandorra.com) as a centre of excellence.

BCA opened its doors for the first time in September 2018 as a one-form entry school from Nursery to Year 7 (3-11 years). In September 2019, the Secondary section opened. 

Flexibility and adaptability will be fundamental to success as will experience, drive and a sense of humour. You would join a happy team of teachers who are fully committed to the school’s success.

This is the second new school opened by Education in Excellence; the two form entry British College of Gavà opened its doors in 2015 to the south of Barcelona and is now a fast growing institution with 300 students. The founders of the school wish to allow each school to develop in accordance with the needs of the communities they serve while providing common values driven curricula with an international outlook.

The school aims to appoint native level English speakers, and some experience of teaching in the UK or British Overseas Schools is highly valued. Candidates from the UK seeking their first overseas position or international teachers with experience of a British curriculum are encouraged to apply

The posts offer a unique opportunity to live in the spectacular natural environment of the Pyrenees with outdoor pursuits such as skiing, cycling, climbing and mountain walking on your doorstep with low tax advantages. The school is situated just outside Andorra La Vella in a privileged position. Originally designed as a mountain hostel, the site is well suited to a one form entry primary and secondary school. In the future, the school will expand each year group in the Secondary Department year on year, accompanied by a building programme to further expand the site.

The cost of living in Andorra is more favourable than most major European cities, and the monthly net salary after social security and low tax deductions is over 2,300 euros a month. The school offers good support in setting up accommodation and your legal entry into Andorra.

Please apply via the TES Portal. Applications should include your full CV plus a letter of a maximum of 2 sides of A4 stating why you are suitable for the position and location. References will be taken up for short listed candidates and police certificates will be required from all previous countries of residence. Early applications are encouraged and an appointment could be made for a suitable candidate before the closing date.
