This role involves teaching MYP Language & Literature (English) and Individuals & Societies (Integrated Humanities) in a diverse and multigrade setting.

The Role

• Teach MYP English (Language & Literature), with a strong focus on engagement with texts, language development, and critical thinking
• Teach MYP Individuals & Societies through an integrated humanities approach, drawing on disciplines such as history, geography, economics, civics, and related social sciences, rather than teaching them as separate subjects
• Plan and deliver inquiry-based learning aligned with the IB MYP framework
• Teach multigrade classes, differentiating effectively to meet diverse academic and language needs
• Support students for whom English is an additional language, working closely with EAL specialists to ensure access to learning and smooth progression into Language & Literature
• Integrate external curriculum standards (e.g., Common Core for English; AERO for Social Studies) within the IB framework
• Use assessment to track progress while prioritising student engagement, growth, and individual pathways
• Seek meaningful links between subjects and contribute to interdisciplinary learning
• Collaborate with Primary colleagues to ensure strong vertical progression in both English and Individuals & Societies
• Embrace educational technology and digital tools, including the effective use of AI, to enhance learning

The Ideal Profile

• Proven experience teaching the MYP (essential)
• Confident teaching English and Individuals & Societies as separate subjects
• Experience or strong comfort across multiple Individuals & Societies disciplines
• Skilled planner, able to manage complexity across grades, standards, and learner profiles
• Experience supporting EAL learners within mainstream classrooms
• Collaborative, flexible, and comfortable working in a developing school environment
• Additional experience or interest in supporting other areas of school life-such as English as an Additional Language (EAL), library support, SEN provision, or Physical Education-will be highly valued, as responsibilities may evolve in response to timetabling and student needs.

Why Join Us?

• Opportunity to help shape teaching and learning in a new IB school
• State-of-the-art facilities in a unique Red Sea destination
• Strong professional learning through the SEK Education Group network
• A collaborative, international environment where initiative and flexibility are valued
