Discovering and applying for the role of Secondary Teacher- Language and Literature, TOK, IGCSE at Beacon Academy
“I found the position of Secondary Teacher- Language and Literature, TOK, IGCSE at Beacon Academy simply by searching through the Schrole database.
“Southeast Asia has always been on my radar and a top preference, so applying was an obvious choice.”
Located in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, Beacon Academy started from humble beginnings with 23 students in Primary 1 in a refurbished warehouse back in 2008.
Being the first school to combine the International Primary Curriculum and Cambridge Primary, students were gaining their knowledge, skills and understanding in a rigorous and fun way. Beacon Academy immediately stood out as an educational institution of choice for parents who wanted something creative and different for their learners.
Over the years, the Academy continued to invest in quality teachers and an increase focus on the use of technology, sports and the arts with a new campus in Kelapa Gading.

“My favourite Schrole features are being able to edit the search criteria quickly and easily, plus the ability to send in unlimited applications.

The majority of our new international faculty now come to us through Schrole. In fact, our school exclusively uses Schrole as our global recruitment tool, having tried and stopped using other sites. This is how much faith we have in Schrole as a valuable resource with good customer service.
