We are looking for internationally qualified Elementary Teachers for the next academic year, starting August 2021. The Elementary curriculum at Heritage is based on the International Primary Curriculum, where students are taught sciences and humanities through a range of hands-on practical learning journeys which foster development in teamwork, critical thinking and problem-solving. This is alongside a stand-alone US based English programme and Singapore Maths. We are looking for a passionate and dedicated professional who is able to inspire students of all abilities and has a natural enthusiasm or ability to deliver creative and innovative lessons. We would welcome applicants who have a special interest in STEM or performing arts. We expect our teachers to be reflective practitioners who can evaluate their own practice and develop the learning in their classroom. We are also interested in teachers who have experience of using dynamic and creative ways to biblically integrate the curriculum.
