Teacher of Spanish - Prep

Rugby School Thailand (RST), a co-educational day and boarding international school set in 80 acres of glorious Thai countryside south of Bangkok, very successfully opened its doors in September 2017 for 110 students aged 2 – 10 years. By September 2020, the School had grown to around 1100 students up to Year 13, including boarders.

The structure, school day and ethos of RST is based upon the British Independent School model, rather than the standard international school model. As such, the school has three sections: Pre-Prep (2-6 year olds), Prep (7 – 12 year olds) and Senior (13 – 18 year olds).

Rugby School Thailand is the first overseas sister school of Rugby School UK, one of the most prestigious and well-known schools in the UK. Rugby School Thailand shares Rugby School UK’s DNA in every important respect. It is unique.

The successful applicant will be capable of teaching Spanish across both the Prep and Senior Schools up to GCSE and A Level, and will report to the Head of Department. An additional language of French or Mandarin would be an advantage.

“We are seeking to appoint teachers who can combine academic rigour with personality, individuality, creativity and drive: teachers who energise students through their enthusiasm, teachers who inspire through innovative use of modern technology, teachers who develop rapport and command respect, teachers who have high expectations and instil self-discipline, teachers who can turn a dry topic into a tour de force, and teachers who…make…learning…fun.”
