The successful candidate will be an excellent communicator, who gets on well with colleagues, students, and parents. Amongst other things, you’ll be well organised, have a good sense of humour and want to participate fully in the extra-curricular aspects of school life as well as the classroom.

BSB is at an exciting stage of its development, having grown very significantly in the past decade and now numbering approximately 1,100 students aged 2-18. We have outstanding students from approximately 60 nationalities, who thrive academically; are committed to achieving their best and who grow with us as true global citizens through our culture of respect, opportunity, and personal development.
