At ACS Egham, we offer the IB - an aspirational, global, and modern curriculum that inspires children to become the drivers of their own success.
We’ve been teaching the IB at ACS for over fifty years, and our experience means we know how best to teach it. We know it gets results - and that’s why we offer the IB as our sole offering, orienting the entire school around its optimal delivery. Many of our teachers are IB examiners, meaning they know exactly how to help children to excel.
Essential Qualifications, Skills and Experience:

- A teaching qualification (QTS or equivalent)
- Strong IT skills, preferably with Apple products
- Significant experience and willingness to integrate technology to improve teaching and learning

- Fluent in both verbal and written English
- Experience of teaching in an international school
Benefits of teaching at ACS:
- Recognising that time is needed to plan, collaborate and provide meaningful feedback to students, teachers at ACS teach a maximum 21 hours per week
- Our maximum class size is a manageable maximum of 22 with most classes being smaller than that. We are a well-resourced school, enabling us to provide our students and teachers with the resources they need to learn and achieve
- We take the professional development of our staff seriously and provide ample opportunities and resourcing to support this.
Start date: August 2023.
