This large Education Group partners with 26 government high schools throughout China, delivering A-levels, the IB Diploma Programme or Advanced Placement courses to over 6,700 students. One of the school’s is currently recruiting for a Secondary Art teacher for an August 2016 start.

Each school has a unique history and culture, yet common themes emerge across all of them: high standards, committed and polite students and a belief in the all-round development of young people. One of the key aims within each school is to adequately prepare students for successful university careers and for life overseas, developed through a modern, western-style of teaching that encourages critical thinking, debate and application of learning. Joining this school group will offer educators a unique opportunity to teach high ability Chinese students so teachers who really enjoy the depth of subject teaching required at A Level, IBDP or AP Level will find this experience incredibly fulfilling.

Requirements: Applications from fully qualified teachers with at least 2 years of post-qualification experience. Applicants will have prior experience in either IB, AP or A-Levels but the most essential requirement is the ability to teach high achieving students at the senior high school level. Applicants must have a passion for their subject and the ability to teach exceptionally academically able and motivated students. Experience of working with ESL students will be advantageous

Benefits: Salary ranging from around £1,700 – £3,100 per month as well as contract completion bonus of around £2,200, flight allowance of around £1,300 per year, housing allowance depending on the location, medical insurance, paid winter and summer vacation (at least 9 weeks in total).
