Upper KS1 / Lower KS2 Teacher

Located in the beautiful Turks and Caicos Islands, our small, friendly school invites applicants for an Upper KS1 / Lower KS2 Teacher.

Providenciales Primary & Middle School is an independent community school in the Turks and Caicos Islands. Our Primary School has operated on Providenciales for over 30 years, with our Middle School opening five years ago. Our vision for education stems from an ambition for all students to experience a truly hands on and creative approach to learning. We aim for students to drive their own learning by providing opportunities for student choice, exploration and investigation. We offer an adapted UK curriculum that is reflective of our setting in both the Caribbean and the world. Learning is grouped into vibrant topics that aim to connect skills and understanding from across the spectrum of curriculum subjects.

Required from September 2024, we are seeking to appoint a creative, enthusiastic and inspiring teacher to work in our Year 2 or 3 class. This post would be idea for a teacher with experience of teaching in Lower Key Stage 2, or a Key Stage 1 teacher looking to expand their experience. Although we are flexible in which year group we are seeking to fill, we would be particularly interested to learn about your experience of:

• meeting the age-related requirements of Upper KS1 or Lower KS2 through the delivery of a rich, creative, topic-based curriculum.
• supporting an effective transition between Key Stages 1 and 2.
• leading a subject specialism in order to support teachers across the school enhance an aspect of the Primary Curriculum.

Providenciales Primary & Middle School boasts a supportive community of staff and parents who work together for the benefit of all pupils. Academic standards in the school are high and we attribute this to our wonderful team of teachers, who work to nurture our children’s inherent talents, natural curiosity and love of learning.
