Teaching Assistant

ROLE SUMMARY:

PaRK International School is a top-tier international school that aims to guide and inspire students to be happy and successful in their adult lives. This is an exciting time to join the team as we are designing our growth roadmap and new staff will be able to actively participate in this project.

While this is an organisation committed to academic excellence, we believe that this is only possible if we are also committed to the personal and professional growth of our staff.

All staff at ParK IS are actively involved in the pastoral life of school. The role will also offer the opportunity for contribution to co-curricular clubs and enrichment.

PaRK International School is focused on the mind and heart of its students and staff. Students will leave our school prepared for academic excellence, proficient in more than one language and comfortable with exploring their own academic curiosity through research and exploration. Students will make lifelong friends and learn about the importance of service within one’s neighborhood and the World. We are determined to guide each student in overcoming their individual challenges by using and developing their strengths and by working hard. Students will learn to embrace failure as a necessary step for growth. They will learn to be comfortable stepping out of their comfort zones and constantly challenging themselves. Practicing these values of academic excellence and personal growth will guide our students to live a productive and happy life.
