English Teacher : Secondary French Stream– American Section

The French International School in Hong Kong is recruiting for an English (Language, Literature) teacher to work in the Secondary French Stream - American Section (OIB). 

Established in 1964, the French International School (FIS) is the oldest international school in Hong Kong. It is a dynamic educational institution, which welcomes over 2,600 students from around the world. It offers both French and British-style curricula and is the largest French school in Asia. 

FIS is a private, not-for-profit organization. In the last five decades, it has grown from a small school with 35 students to one of the most renowned international schools in the region. Its students are from 40 countries speaking some 30 languages – it is a truly multicultural learning environment. 

FIS operates two streams, French and International, under an overall Headmaster appointed by the AEFE. The French Stream follows a French curriculum and has approximately 2000 students. The International Stream follows a curriculum broadly based on the English national curriculum leading to IGCSE and then the International Baccalaureate in Years 12 and 13. It currently has approximately 642 students registered. 

The American section of the International Option of the French Baccalaureate (OIB) combines the breadth and rigor of the French Baccalaureate with extra subjects taught and examined in English, resulting in a bilingual, bicultural diploma. Students in the OIB program have the opportunity to take English language and literature and history and geography courses taught from an American perspective by certified anglophone teachers.

The OIB team at FIS is comprised of 14 teachers from 7 different nationalities working together to help the students achieve academic excellence in a nurturing environment.
