Secondary Biology Teacher (m/f/d)

Secondary Biology Teacher

St George’s the British International School, Duisburg-Dusseldorf, Germany.

St George’s School seeks a well-qualified professional to teach Biology to begin in January 2024 or sooner if available.

The School

Serving the international community in Duisburg-Düsseldorf for over 10 years, St. George’s School combines an enriching curriculum with family orientated care. The school has grown from small beginnings into a thriving community of over 600 pupils, aged from 2-18 and representing a broad range of nationalities.

The National Curriculum is taught throughout the school, and we offer the IB Diploma in our Sixth Form.

One of a group of three schools located across Germany, St. George’s offers the successful applicant an exciting range of opportunities for professional development and growth across the school group.

The Location

Germany’s sixth largest city, Düsseldorf is a dynamic and vibrant cultural centre, with a large and diverse international community. Situated in the heart of Europe, Düsseldorf offers a high standard of living, as well as numerous opportunities for travel and cultural discovery.

Düsseldorf airport is located only 15km from the school, with many daily flights to the UK, and high speed rail services connect Düsseldorf to a wide range of European destinations.

The Role

We are seeking to appoint a qualified Biology Teacher to work in our well-established Science department.

The successful applicant will be a dynamic teacher with experience of enabling pupils to achieve their potential. We are looking for the right balance between experience, enthusiasm and a passion for teaching that will inspire our pupils.

The secondary department covers the age range 11-18 and incorporates the curricula for Key Stage 3, IGCSE and IB Diploma. Familiarity with the British education system is therefore a prerequisite. Experience of IB teaching is preferred, but not required.

Science is part of the core curriculum for all ages. In Middle School, students follow a course in General Science, which combines topics in Biology, Physics and Chemistry. Students take Cambridge IGCSE examinations at age 16, studying for the double combined award. In the Sixth Form, students can opt to study either one or two science subjects as part of the IB diploma.

Only applications made through the TES online portal will be considered.

• 
  A copy of your degree certificate and teaching qualification.

All applicants should hold a valid teaching qualification. We consider a degree in education (e.g. B.Ed./M.Ed./Lehramt), or postgraduate teaching certificate (e.g. PGCE) as valid. English language teaching certificates (e.g. TEFL/IELTS/CELTA) are not sufficient.

Applications should be submitted by the closing date of 24th September 2023. The school reserves the right to contact outstanding applicants in advance of this deadline.

St George’s is committed to safeguarding and protecting the welfare of children and expects all staff to share this commitment. The successful applicant will therefore be subject to enhanced background checks.
