Job overview
The English School Fahaheel (ESF) is looking to appoint a highly motivated and skilled Primary School teacher for the academic year 2025-26.
The successful candidate will need to have a Bachelor's Degree in Education or a related subject, a certified teaching qualification (e.g. PGCE) and experience in a British school setting of teaching KS1 or KS2. For more details of the post, please read the job description attached.
The English School Fahaheel is a friendly, caring and high-achieving co-educational day school for students between the ages of 3-18 years That is internationally accredited through The Council of International Schools (CIS).
The English School Fahaheel was founded in 1968 by a group of expatriate parents under the guidance of the incumbent British Consul.
In that same year the school was recognised by the Private Education Department of the Ministry of Education in Kuwait, and opened its doors to a handful of expatriate students.
At that time there was no other school in South Kuwait providing an English education other than a company school established in Ahmadi by Kuwait Oil Company for the children of its employees.
Progress and expansion continued unabated until the invasion of Kuwait in 1990. The occupying Iraqi army used the school premises as a command centre and destroyed or looted furniture, educational materials and anything of value. Following the liberation of Kuwait in 1991, the owner of the school, Mr. Ibrahim Shuhaiber M.Sc., was determined to see it thrive once again. A major clean-up operation began as the British Army forces in Kuwait assisted in clearing mines and ammunition from the surrounding area and beach.
The English School Fahaheel soon regained its position as one of Kuwait’s leading English schools, achieving excellence in education.
ESF is committed to safer recruitment and prioritises the safeguarding and welfare of all children and young people and expects all members of staff to share in this commitment. This post will be subject to enhanced DBS/ICPC checks being received.
