Job overview

British Primary School of Wilanow (BSW) in Warsaw, Poland, is seeking to appoint an inspiring English and Humanities Teacher to join a forward-thinking, dynamic team in Warsaw's fastest growing international school from August 2026.

The School

The school is located in the upscale Warsaw suburb of Wilanow, where old meets new and city meets country. The historical Royal Wilanow overlooks new, stylish cafes and shops as well as leafy green fields and woods.

BSW opened in Autumn 2014, in a purpose-built accommodation on a charming greenfield site, with a handful of Nursery-age children. Numbers for 24/25 have grown to over 400 pupils and there are waiting lists in most year groups.

We are strongly committed to the highest standards of education. BSW successfully completed COBIS Patron's Accreditation in November 2021.

BSW joined the International Schools Partnership in 2023.

The Role

We are looking for British-qualified and experienced teachers. Our teachers have formed a strong team, demonstrating flexibility, creativity and flair; we need new members who are every bit as willing to play a full part in helping to develop the ethos, character and structures of an ambitious, values-based school. We have a clear philosophy of education centred on our Walk of the Lion which values Respect, Courage, Cooperation, Consideration and Nobility.

Our teachers are hard-working and passionate about education. They set high expectations with regards to the progress of all pupils and are effective and supportive members of the whole school team. At BSW teachers endeavour to place the school values at the heart of everything we do.

BSW has a rich programme of outdoor learning, including Forest School and sports and our teachers play a full part in the cultural, educational and extra-curricular life of the school.

The Candidate

We are seeking applicants with UK teaching qualifications (PGCE or B.Ed.) and experience of working with the English National curriculum in the UK or in an international setting. QTS is highly recommended.

The successful candidate will be dedicated to educational excellence, creative, energetic, flexible and genuinely respectful of students, staff, parents and the wider community.

We offer

  • Highly-motivated, engaged and very well-behaved children

  • An excellent teaching team

  • Maximum class sizes of 24

  • Well-resourced classrooms

  • On-going CPD and INSET to support innovative practice

  • An attractive package

The package includes

  • A highly competitive salary

  • A financial subsidy towards accommodation

  • Subsidised comprehensive medical package

  • Subsidised health club membership

Initial contracts will be for a two year fixed-term with possibility of renewal by mutual agreement.
