Aspen Heights British School will offer a unique educational programme using the National Curriculum for England and Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). The school will provide an essentially British ethos; however, we want all our students to develop an appreciation of their own culture, home or host country.
To this end, we have used our extensive experience as international educators to combine international themes and topics alongside local traditions and experiences to create an exciting and enriched curriculum. At full capacity, the school will cater for approximately 2,300 students from Foundation Stage to Year 13. In the first year, the school will be open to students from Foundation Stage 1 (age 3-4 years) to Year 8 (age 12 years).
The students will largely be drawn from families in the local community who desire an international education for their children. The school will be a high quality, purpose built facility designed in sections to accommodate early years provision, primary and secondary.
We are seeking to appoint motivated, highly skilled, enthusiastic and dedicated teachers who would work alongside, develop and support a multi-cultural staff team in our continued pursuit of excellence.
We are seeking teachers who have at least two years of teaching experience who have a BA and PGCE or a BEd in primary education. English language acquisition and early literacy development are key to our success and experience in this would be an advantage.
Aspen Heights British School is owned and operated by International Schools Partnership, an ever-growing global family of schools where the child's learning is at the core of everything we do. Our schools are located around the globe with more outstanding centres of educational excellence joining our partnership all the time. We currently have 15 partner schools with around 13,000 children from 3-18 years of age studying in the United Kingdom, Spain, Mexico and the Middle East.
