Description

Are you a primary teacher who believes that children learn best when they feel supported, challenged and inspired?

An international school in the Philippines is seeking excellent Primary Class Teachers to join its teaching team for August 2027.

This opportunity is suited to educators who can create purposeful learning experiences, nurture individual strengths and encourage children to become curious, reflective and independent learners.

Whether your expertise lies in the Early Years, Key Stage 1 or Key Stage 2, this is an opportunity to contribute to a welcoming international learning community while developing your career in Southeast Asia.

Overview

Successful candidates will teach within the Primary School, planning and delivering engaging lessons that support academic progress, personal development and student wellbeing.

You will create a positive classroom environment, adapt teaching to meet individual needs and use assessment to inform your planning. Depending on your experience and the school's requirements, you may teach within the Early Years, Key Stage 1 or Key Stage 2 phases.

About the School

The school offers a British international education for students from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. Its curriculum is designed to support both academic achievement and the development of confident, independent and globally minded learners.

Across the primary years, teaching approaches evolve to reflect children's developmental needs. Younger students benefit from opportunities to learn through play, exploration and practical experiences, while older primary learners increasingly engage with conceptual understanding, independent inquiry and more complex academic tasks.

The school places importance on positive relationships, inclusive learning environments and student wellbeing. Teachers are encouraged to recognise individual strengths, support different learning needs and create opportunities for children to take an active role in their education.

For primary educators, this offers an opportunity to contribute to a thoughtful, well-rounded learning experience within an international community.
