The International English School of Castellón is currently recruiting for a teacher of chemistry to join our successful team. The postholder will be responsible for guiding our students through aspects of KS3 science and IGCSE/A level chemistry courses. You will join a team of 3 other science teachers and a laboratory technician.
This is an interesting time to join our growing school and to play a part in the development of our science department in particular.
Our school is a friendly and popular independent British school located on the Mediterranean coast, north of Valencia. Castellón is a small, safe city with a wonderful coastline, excellent climate and good access to rail networks and airports.
We provide an education based on the 'British curriculum' to children from one to eighteen years of age. 81% of our children are Spanish and they experience a real immersion in English in school, learning English language in the same way as we acquire our own mother tongue.
The... secondary curriculum is based on the National Curriculum in KS3 (Cambridge Lower Secondary programme) and Cambridge (CAIE) IGCSE and A level programmes in KS4 and KS5. We prepare pupils for external examinations allowing access to universities in Spain, the UK and other countries.
We currently run IGCSE Coordinated Sciences and at A level we offer Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Marine Science. We are committed to providing students with an increasingly practical experience of the sciences.
We are proud to offer our pupils a great variety of opportunities as part of their school curriculum. These experiences support both their emotional and academic growth. Children develop their individual skills and qualities in a caring environment where they are encouraged to flourish through personal reflection, challenge and support. We help, guide and encourage our pupils to develop confidence and self-discipline. The role of the teacher in our school is therefore much more than just teaching a subject, it involves enthusing, inspiring and caring for each child.
If you are a confident, energetic, caring teacher who believes in dialogue, positivity, kindness and collegiality, then we encourage you to explore this opportunity in our school.
We are very proud to be one of seven schools in Spain belonging to the International Education Partnership (IEP), a member of Dukes Education
