Mallorca International School is a young and vibrant school catering for the ex-pat and local Mallorquin community close to Pollença in the north east of the island.  Founded only three years ago, the school prides itself as being a ‘values-based’ school with a strong community spirit, as well as fulfilling its mission to provide a creative, forward-thinking and innovative educational experience.

The school is delighted to accept applications from fully qualified teachers with QTS.   Applicants should have at least 3 years of teaching experience and be native English speakers.  Candidates with British National Curriculum experience are preferred though candidates with experience of comparable systems will be considered.
