We require an experienced Diploma Programme and Middle Years Maths and Science teacher who would be responsible for teaching science (DP Physics or DP Chemistry and/or MYP integrated science) and maths (DP Maths A&I, MYP maths) to students from Years 7-13.

We can also offer potential leadership opportunities, where suitable, for the successful candidate as a curriculum coordinator, learning support or TOK which come with additional allowances.

Udon Thani International School (UDIS) is a co-educational, day school for students from the expatriate community of Udon Thani and Thai students seeking an international education. UDIS offers a broad and comprehensive curriculum, based on the National Curriculum of England (NCE) to students from 2 to 18 years of age. The school is an authorised school for the Primary Years Programme (PYP)  and Middle Years Programme (MYP). The school is completing authorisation in the Diploma Programme ready for the 2024/2025 academic year.

Candidates must meet the following criteria:

• Have home country educational and teacher qualifications
• Have home country teaching experience
• Have proven experience teaching maths and science in the DP
• Have a Bachelor’s degree
• Adaptable, flexible, community minded and student centred.

It would be advantageous for the candidate to have the following:

• Experience of the MYP
• Leadership experience and/or curriculum development experience in the MYP or DP
•  ICT experience and applications for student learning
• Knowledge of project based and inquiry learning methodologies

Experience in teaching the International Baccalaureate is an advantage, however what is more important is the willingness to recognise the diversity that exists in the student body and not to teach from a mono-cultural perspective. We are primarily looking for teachers who will be able to inspire in their students a love for learning.

Teachers are expected to be efficient, professional, good team members and ambassadors for the School. All staff are issued with a job description and will be appraised accordingly.

UDIS is a friendly school where teachers are extremely valued and looked after. We will do our best to support you and help you flourish at our school because we believe happy teachers can deliver the best education to our students while the wellbeing of our teachers is a core strategy for the school.

As such, we offer a professional working environment and an attractive remuneration and benefits package which include:

• Competitive salary commensurate with experience and qualifications
• accommodation allowance
• Master teacher allowance possible for exceptionally qualified candidates
• Annual professional development allowance
• Health insurance
• Visas and work permits to work in Thailand
• Placement of any accompanying children
• 2 year contract
• One return ticket to home country per contract if based outside Thailand

position has a flexible start date, either in January or July, 2024 although earlier
