As English is the medium of instruction throughout our program, a high level of proficiency is a definite prerequisite for applicants at all levels. Applicants for positions at the Senior School without basic IT skills will be at a disadvantage.

Individuals applying to teach Montessori (Playgroup to grade 1); Elementary (grades 2 to 5); or those applying for reading and writing intensive subjects (grades 6 – 8), i.e. languages, history, geography, etc. may be asked to submit a writing sample when they come for the interview.

Applicants for teaching positions at the Senior School are almost always asked to present a demo lesson to a panel of students and faculty from their proposed department.
Individuals applying to teach Art or Music should either submit a digital portfolio of their work (preferably on CD-ROM) or request permission to present their portfolio during the interview.

Applicants for posts in the administration may be asked to put in a trial week, where they work with our existing team.
