Due to the continued growth of Lanna International School, we are seeking to appoint a full-time creative, inspirational, experienced, and dedicated Accelerated English Programme (AEP) Teacher to join our Primary team for the 2024-25 academic year.
Any successful applicant must actively support Lanna’s vision and mission supporting our students' academic, social, and emotional well-being. He/she will develop supportive and positive relationships with all members of the Lanna community and demonstrate effective and innovative teaching strategies in line with the school’s beliefs around pedagogy. He/she must have the ability to collaborate with colleagues in the planning process to develop stimulating and rich learning engagements within our curriculum and understand and utilise formative assessment practices.
The successful applicant must be an outstanding teacher passionate about developing the whole child, be up to date with curriculum developments and new initiatives promoting teaching and learning and be unrelenting in their belief in the potential of children. Applicants must be a fluent English speaker. and have experience teaching English to Non-Native English Speakers (NNES)
The AEP teacher develops students' reading, writing, speaking, and listening abilities when studying in English. It also gives students the attributes necessary for enhanced academic performance and greater autonomy in their learning. In addition, the skills learned in the AEP will be useful outside the academic context. They will help students to be competent and confident whenever they use English in their lives.
The main aim of the programme is that, after one to two years, students will have attained a level of English competency that can enable a successful transition to the mainstream at Lanna or another international school. Enrolling in the AEP does not guarantee students a place in Lanna's mainstream later. That is dependent on the individual's level of English, attitude to studies, and the availability of places in our mainstream.
The position requires a contribution to the school’s extra-curricular activities programmes, After School English Tuition Programme and participation in continuous professional development activities to extend a candidate's current knowledge and practices. Furthermore, he/she must be willing to add capacity to the team through the sharing of ideas, practice, and expertise. Experience in the Cambridge program/ International Primary Curriculum/National Curriculum of England and Wales is preferred but not essential.
We are fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, therefore all applicants must be willing to undergo rigorous child protection screening, including checks with past employers and criminal background check
When we had a teacher decide to take another job in mid-July, we were left with few options. Historically, it was a tough position to fill. Within 24 hours of posting the position on Schrole, we were able to offer a contract to a more-qualified educator.
