Job overview

An exciting opportunity to be part of the pioneer team establishing a new school that opened in September 2018 in Kuala Lumpur. We are looking to appoint a teacher to take over RS teaching from January, and then RS and other teaching in the Humanities Faculty from September 2019. For the right candidate, it might be possible to take up the post for September 2019.

King Henry VIII College, Malaysia is a fully-fledged sister school to Christ College, Brecon, one the UK’s oldest schools, founded by Henry VIII in 1541.

Like its Welsh sibling, King Henry VIII College is a co-educational boarding and day school, with students from 3 to 18 years of age. We share the values and ethos of Christ College, and make the most of our links in the UK and across the globe, ensuring we are very much a British international school.

King Henry VIII College enjoys a prominent, urban setting in the Multi-Media Super Corridor hub that is Cyberjaya - a rapidly-developing planned township, mid-way between Kuala Lumpur City Centre and KL International Airport. The school has an impressive modern campus, with outstanding, purpose-built facilities.

Each teaching position presents a wonderful opportunity for an enthusiastic and experienced individual with a particular interest in being part of a new school.

The curriculum at KH8 is a recognisable British one, modelled on that at Christ College. In the Senior School we cover a modern subject selection and students will sit Cambridge International IGCSE’s and AS/A levels, preparing them to go on to study at top universities world-wide.
