Primary / Elementary Teacher

Client of Edvectus

A private co-educational non for profit bilingual school located in Kuwait is seeking PRIMARY / ELEMENTARY TEACHERS.

A Float position earns the same salary and benefits as a homeroom teacher. Due to the large size of the elementary school with more than 700 students, absences and long term leaves are expected. It is for this reason that they have approval to hire 2-3 extra qualified teachers who can step into the classroom due to a sudden emergency or even a no-show in August. The extra teachers are given duties in various classrooms throughout the year. Extra teachers can also be assigned as homeroom teacher in the following year when the vacancy arises. It is a great way to adjust into the climate of the school.
