Job overview
DT Teacher – Product Design
Start: August 2025
We seek to appoint a dynamic and innovative DT teacher with a particular talent for Product Design and Graphics to join the team in our Technology and Arts Department.
We have a very active innovation programme underway at school. We don’t want to be a ‘me too’ school that simply replicates what every other school is doing. We want to be at the forefront of learning by involving our students in authentic, project based inquiries that explore the various nuances of art and design.
We are looking for inventors, artists, mad scientists and people who think outside the usual curriculum to join our team and help us drive our innovation initiatives.
Familiarity with, or a clear ability to work within a British Curriculum framework is needed, as is the ability to work in an environment where English is the medium of instruction. A minimum of three years of teaching experience and qualified teacher status (QTS) is required.
Expatriate Life in Malaysia
Malaysia continues to enjoy a relatively low cost of living, making it possible to live very comfortably, travel extensively and still generate a reasonable level of annual savings from your monthly salary. Blessed with an abundance of natural resources, beautiful tropical islands, exotic jungle and modern vibrant cities, Malaysia offers the expatriate teacher an amazing lifestyle.
Our school
The HELP International School is at the forefront of holistic education for 3 to 18-year olds in Malaysia. Entering its tenth year of operation, it has enjoyed phenomenal growth with 1450 students on its roll. The school is now entering a new and exciting phase of its development as it implements its new strategic plan, supported by further investment in buildings and resources.
A recent consultation with staff highlighted the levels of collegiality and professional support amongst staff as a particular strength of the school, as its commitment to on-going professional development of all team members. Our host country, Malaysia is an amazing place to live and work in. A number of our staff are now into their fourth or fifth year of working at our school.
Remuneration package
The appointment commences from in August 2025. The remuneration package offers a competitive salary, and includes housing allowance, medical insurance, annual flights, Apple Macbook Air laptop, education for dependent children, and other benefits.

To apply, please send a letter of application and CV (with contact details of at least 3 referees) as one document (no more than 5 A4 pages in total) as a PDF file attachment directly to hr@kl.his.edu.my
The closing date for applications: Friday 22nd November 2024
