UAE, United Arab Emirates Bloom World Academy Full time

Bloom World Academy, located in the centre of Dubai in a state-of-the-art new building/campus, is seeking to appoint an IB Teacher Librarian to start in August 2024 (potentially sooner).

**Our Story**

**Bloom World Academy** was launched in August 2022 and educates children from ages three to 18 years. The school has been hugely successful, so far, in challenging convention and doing things differently in Dubai for the benefit of learners, families and teachers.

Every aspect of learning and teaching at Bloom World Academy has been considered - how we do it, why we do it and the impact it is having. This has directly led to many firsts for the UAE. BWA is the first school in UAE to start at 9am; the first school where each student and their family can choose their own timetable (learning pathways), and a school where each student has a Learning Achievement Passport (LAP) - where the performance and progress is shared with the student and family each month.

Most of all, BWA is a school which puts family-life first - we encourage parents to be in school, even work from school in our community café, attend regular workshops and to join our weekly, celebratory community forum.

**IB Teacher Librarian - the Position**

Bloom World Academy is seeking a creative, expert practitioner, at their happiest and most effective in the classroom, but prepared, willing, and able to **lead and champion our library spaces within our Senior School (MYP) and Nexus (IBDP/CP) Pre-university Centre.**

We are looking for an experienced IB teacher librarian. The librarian should provide educational and pedagogical leadership and be involved in varied collaborative investigations with teachers and students, as well as developing and managing the library itself. You will be able to teach students of all abilities, demonstrate a proven track record of securing outstanding student outcomes as well as having the ability to positively influence the practice of other teachers.

It is desirable that you have experience of the IB programme, albeit not essential, as training will be given.

**The BWA Community**

BWA teachers are part of a community which is cohesive, spirited and sociable. BWA teachers enjoy genuine friendships with their colleagues, positive relationships with school leaders, who care for their well-being, and are a team in the true sense. BWA teachers are flexible, problem solvers and are not fazed by the more mundane challenges of developing a new school. At BWA teachers are expected to be good-humoured and build positive working relationships with families. All staff are encouraged to be creative and partake/lead community events.
- Advanced/proficient-level English language skills
- Bachelor’s or Master's degree in Library Science or similar experience, with a PGCE in Education with QTS or equivalent is preferred.
- Knowledge of various offline and online resources/platforms (i.e. JSTOR/Follett, etc.)
- IB DP/CP experience strongly preferred - including TOK, IA or Extended Essay knowledge and support
- A minimum of three to five years’ experience teaching in a reputable school
- Demonstrates professionalism, enthusiasm, commitment and integrity
- Inter-cultural awareness, well-developed communication skills and excited to engage with students and parents

**What we Offer**
- Competitive tax-free salary
- School provided accommodation or appropriate allowance
- School places for dependent children
- Private medical insurance for yourself and family
- Annual airfare
- End of contract gratuity as per the UAE labour law
- Bespoke professional development training programme

**How to Apply**

The school reserves the right to contact applicants and appoint before the closing date of the advertisement.
