Secondary English Teacher

Due to continued expansion and growth Kings’ School Nad Al Sheba is seeking a Secondary English Teacher.

This will be a demanding, yet rewarding, position and the successful applicants will be supported by a highly creative, driven and open team.

When you join the Kings’ family, you will become part of a strategically connected group of schools, one of which is the only school in Dubai to be rated outstanding 10 years running. Working in Dubai is a fast-paced and rewarding experience, however, it is a demanding and rigorous working environment which requires committed and motivated professionals. As such we seek teachers who understand that their role extends far beyond the classroom.

As part of our drive for excellence, Kings’ has committed to the John Hattie Visible Learning programme and is the only school in the Middle East working directly with the Visible Learning group. This focuses on how to best enhance student achievement, linking closely to our mission statement of “The best by every child.” All teachers receive excellent and highly desirable professional development which informs our approach as a professional body.

Requirements:  

• A high quality degree with English Literature as the sole or significant focus    
• Hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent, both newly qualified and experienced teachers will be considered    
• Experience of teaching GCSE and A-Level    
• Able to teach consistently inspirational lessons and a track record/ability to deliver results    
• A commitment to the wellbeing and pastoral care of all students within their care    
• Able and willing to make a broader contribution to school life    
• The ability to adapt quickly to Kings’ fast-paced international, multicultural and demanding environment (Experience of working overseas or with international students would be an advantage though not essential).

How to apply: Candidates are to apply directly through the TES portal.

Closing date for applications is 12th December 2021. Only candidates who are shortlisted for an interview will be contacted.

(*The school will conduct initial interviews with early applicants via zoom and reserves the right to offer an ideal candidate for the position before the closing date.)
