ROLE SUMMARY:

Reporting to the Head of Senior School, we are seeking an outstanding, committed and energetic Teacher of Economics to join the British School of Bahrain to start in August 2024. The candidate must be a team player and must have a passion for achieving the highest levels of learning and a culture of excellence for themselves and their students.

We are BSB, a school with its roots in the historic and culturally rich country of Bahrain, which is now growing within the global community. Join us on this journey.



The British School of Bahrain is committed to providing a high-quality, international education for students in the Kingdom of Bahrain. We are a selective, coeducational, independent nursery through year 13 school. Our curriculum is based on the National Curriculum for England and Wales, with some adaptations to the local context and offers IGCSE and A-Level/BTEC examinations. While the language of academic instruction is English, we are a truly international school, and our pupils and staff come from over 82 different nationalities. The school has 2900 students on roll aged 3-18, it has a warm feel to it, and there is a sense of fun. Most importantly, our students are a joy to teach.

Teaching and Learning at BSB

BSB is a member of the Inspired global group of schools, which aspires to the highest standards in private education. Integrating innovative, challenging and enriching programmes in the academic curriculum, performing arts and sport is central to the Inspired approach.
