Horizon International School Dubai Jobs 2022 – Apply Online Biology Teacher Vacancy in Dubai, UAE

Horizon International School is a supportive, student focused, international community school. We strive to challenge and inspire all learners to develop their skills and nurture values through a love of learning so that they can responsibly embrace the diverse challenges of tomorrow.

Horizon International School, Dubai, is an established, thriving community that follows the Early Years Foundation Stage Curriculum and the National Curriculum of England in Primary and Secondary. Students take a combination of IGCSE and GCSE at the end of Key Stage 4, leading into ‘A’ levels thereafter. Since our doors opened in September 2008, the school community has rapidly grown, and we now have approximately 1235 students with ages ranging from 3 to 18 from over 80 different countries.

September 2021 saw further expansion in our growing secondary phase. As a result, we require an innovative and passionate teacher to join our community. Given the ’boutique’ size of the secondary department, colleagues with previous pastoral experience, or wider school responsibilities, would be very welcome.

We welcome applications from teachers who have a creative approach to curriculum delivery and who put the student’s learning first.
