Job overview

We have recently celebrated our 23rd year and grown to 4 campuses with over 700 students from Nursery to Year 13. The international curriculum is inquiry-based and mirrors the EYFS and National Curriculum in England with Cambridge IGCSE and IBDP in Secondary. As a British international school, we are a proud member of COBIS and the Black Sea Schools Group.

This is a school for teachers ready to accept the challenge of joining us on our journey to being truly great; those wanting to try new things and who see teaching as a life choice and not simply a job.

It is an exciting time for both Ukraine and our school and the best teachers will thrive in this environment.

We require our teachers to have:

• Degree and QTS (or equivalent);

• Experience IGCSE is essential and 'A' level/IBDP desirable;

• A commitment to a constructivist approach to learning;

• A willingness to contribute to the life of our school as an active team member;

• A genuine interest in promoting and providing quality learning and teaching;

• A desire to continue to develop personally and professionally;

• UK training or experience working in a British International school is a very strong advantage.

Kyiv is a wonderful, accessible and vibrant city in which to live and explore. It gives easy access to other European capitals and beyond. Flight time to the UK is less than 4 hours.

We provide a very competitive salary, gratuity & benefits package which includes accommodation, a travel payment, resettlement allowance, access to CPD and medical cover. A 'successful completion of contract' payment is payable after 2 years. 90% of our staff stay 3 years or more.

The low cost of living means a high standard in terms of lifestyle may be maintained while still providing an excellent opportunity to save.

Class sizes are small (<21). PPA is guaranteed.

Distributed leadership opportunities exist for suitable candidates.

About The British International School, Ukraine

As Ukraine’s most prestigious international school our priorities are the care and wellbeing of each child, service to our parents and support for the community.

We have established a strong reputation as a friendly and caring environment with a commitment to quality.  

At BISU we focus on high academic attainment and a curriculum which is broad, balanced and designed to meet the individual needs of our children. We know that excellent results are important, but our children must also be happy,  know they are listened to and are cherished.

Academic results are high and, in addition to ensuring educational excellence and outstanding achievement, our aim is to develop the abilities, traits and life-skills that will help our students persevere with setbacks and positively contribute to the wider community.

Our graduates will progress and figure prominently as leaders in politics, science, business and the arts and therefore, we nurture the development of the shared British and International values and virtues that are vital for them to fulfil their potential and realise their dreams.

Although we have over 30 nationalities represented we know that such numbers alone do not make a school international. Therefore, we embrace a commitment to internationalism and interculturalism by recognising what we have in common and exploring what is different; to promote tolerance, morality and a deeper understanding of the world around us.

It has been said that the development of our school in many ways mirrors that of this wonderful country - with each having a long heritage and strong traditions. Now, both are looking to the future with high aspirations and each has the talent, creativity and determination to achieve great things.

BISU is a place where we want people to feel that they belong, are valued and look forward to coming to school each day . Learning is an exciting and amazing adventure. We guarantee, you will always be welcome if you would like to come along and join us on our journey.
