Requirements

You enjoy working with others and understand that while you may have a lot to offer, you also have a lot to learn. We are doing something completely new and the more clearly, we can express and share this the more on board all will be, so excellent communications skills will be needed by everyone in our team.

Your journey has led you to dream of a world where each child's needs are being met, learning is engaging and inspirational, and your contribution to it requires you to thread together multiple disciplines like educational research, human psychology, and local context.

You are looking for a place where you can impact future generations and you are someone who is nourished by applying themselves wholly to their work and to growth. You are fascinated with play-based, nature-based, and experiential learning approaches and you have a deep respect and knowledge of the region's culture, faith, and language.

You will bring the right game changing mindset to the table and be enthusiastic about designing the future of learning alongside our team.

The ideal candidate will have the following qualifications, experience or skills:

· Bachelor's Education degree or program.

· Have a versatile background (perhaps even unconventional), including experience working with learners.

· Ideally, fluent in both English and Arabic and have lived in (or currently reside in) the UAE.

· Committed to improving learning practice and evolving one day into a full-fledged learning guide and perhaps, one day, a school leader.

· Have an interest in regular engagement and interaction with learners.

· Ability to work collaboratively with other Learning Guides and the Core Team.

· Patient and empathetic with learners of all ages as well as their parents

· Creative and innovative.

Candidates with bi-lingual (English + Arabic) proficiency with respect and appreciation for Emirati culture, Islamic faith and regional aspirations are preferred.

We offer

The post offers the successful candidate:

· The opportunity to work in an energetic and innovative environment that will help transform ideas about the form that education should take for the future

· A collegiate environment committed to our children and young people

· An international setting and experience in an advanced school model

· An opportunity to be disciplined, creative and disruptive in building school models for the future

To apply

Please send your application to and state the Job Title matching your interest in the subject line of the email. Candidates should supply a CV and brief letter of application detailing clearly their suitability for the post, as well as contact details of two referees.

Closing date for applications: 31 August 2024 but immediate applications are preferred. All posts are available for immediate hire and the school reserves the right to appoint before the deadline for applications. Initial interviews will be conducted online. Any offer of appointment will be subject to references and child-protection checks.
