Our client is seeking an experienced Early Childhood Nursery (2-3 year olds) Teacher for a brand new international kindergarten in Guangzhou, China.

The school uses the U.K.(EYFS) curriculum for literacy and numeracy with the thematic International Early Years Curriculum (IEYC) units.

The kindergarten is close to the inner city CBD and teachers will live close to the school in a modern one-bedroom apartment.

Regional Info:
Guangzhou is the largest city and the capital city of the Guangdong province and the third largest city in China. The city is located on the Pearl River, about 120 km (75 mi) north-northwest of Hong Kong and north-northeast of Macau. Guangzhou has a humid subtropical climate and summers are hot and wet (the monsoon season lasts from April toSeptember) and winters are relatively mild and dry. There are about 14 million residents in Guangzhou and Cantonese is the first language for about half of these residents while the other half speak mainly Mandarin. In recent years, the city has developed a more cosmopolitan appearance with new shopping plazas, high rise buildings, a modern metro system and landscaped parks and road sides. It's a busy, lively city but parts of the cities have charm with restored churches, buildings and private residences. Having a major airport and being so close to Hong Kong opens up a world of travel opportunities from short weekend trips to longer treks around Asia in the holidays. Guangzhou really is the perfect place to base yourself in Asia! https://www.expatistan.com/cost-of-living/comparison/london/guangzhou
