PRIMARY / ELEMENTARY HOMEROOM TEACHERS (LOWER SCHOOL - GRADE 1 & 2) NEEDED FOR SCHOOL IN DUBAI - AUGUST 2018.

The school offers an American education experience eventually leading to a High School Diploma for international and Emirati students. The school curriculum is designed to align to the New York State Learning Standards which includes the New York State P-12 Common Core Learning Standards. The school will initially cater for over 500 students from KG to Grade 5.

Candidates must currently be employed in an accredited US district school offering the Common Core State Standards. Candidates must hold valid and relevant US teacher certification. Teachers will be US citizens and mother-tongue English speakers (therefore no need to complete TOEFL as evidence of language proficiency). Candidates ideally should currently be employed in a New York State district school with greater preference given to New York City district school experience. Candidates holding valid and relevant New York State teacher certification may receive preference. TWO years of post qualification experience is an essential pre-requisite.

Candidates require a Bachelors of Education for Elementary and/or Early Years depending on grade levels taught (e.g., a Grade 5 teacher would require Elementary rather than Early Years). Preference will be given to candidates with relevant graduate degrees if all other elements are equal.

Only single or married teaching couples can apply; those with a non-teaching spouse can be considered on a case by case basis. No dependent children possible.
