Over the past 70 years, the school has firmly established itself as a leading provider of the Kenyan 8-4-4 curriculum. In September 2021, the school decided to offer a new curriculum, and thus the International Section of the school was started. We are driven by the belief that the International Curriculum which includes an enriching extra-curricular program empowers students with critical thinking and problem-solving skills, equips students with the subject knowledge to enable them to innovate and create, and ensures students develop a determined mindset to continually learn and grow…attributes they will need to prosper in their future. We are actively committed to diversity, promote moral responsibility as well as strive to develop strength of character within a respectful school community. Our goal is to foster a lifelong passion for learning, understanding, and service in an ever-changing world. We invite you to learn more about our school and to visit us. We are confident that you will leave with an appreciation for our values, our program, and our people. We strongly believe: In a holistic balanced approach to learning where an equal emphasis is placed between academics, sports, drama, music, and arts. That an education curriculum should be designed to enhance at a very early age, the critical thinking and problem-solving skills necessary to prepare any child for adult working life in the 21st Century. That an educational curriculum combined with an extensive choice of extracurricular and additional activities should provide students the ability to develop new strengths, skills and pursue their interests at a relatively young age.

Job Description

Role Overview

You will lead a classroom under Kenya’s Competency-Based Curriculum, guiding learners through interactive, skills-focused lessons that go beyond rote memorisation. Working alongside fellow teachers, you will adapt teaching materials to meet diverse learner needs, integrate basic digital tools where they strengthen understanding, and track each child’s progress against CBE assessment benchmarks. Your role matters because you are directly shaping how students think, create, and collaborate at a foundational stage of their education.

Key Responsibilities

  • Plan and deliver daily lessons aligned to the Competency-Based Curriculum, using learner-centred approaches such as group work, projects, and hands-on activities.
  • Develop or source CBE-aligned teaching and learning resources, including simple digital presentations, videos, or interactive exercises that reinforce core competencies.
  • Assess learners continuously through observations, checklists, portfolios, and formal tasks, then record and report results accurately to school leadership and parents.
  • Identify learners who require extra support or enrichment and adapt instruction, pacing, or materials to help every child progress meaningfully.
  • Maintain a safe, inclusive, and well-organised classroom environment that encourages questioning, creativity, and positive peer interaction.
  • Participate in school-based professional development, staff meetings, and curriculum review sessions to refine teaching practice and align with TSC and Ministry of Education guidelines.
  • Communicate regularly with parents or guardians about learner progress, behaviour, and ways they can support learning at home.
  • Uphold professional and ethical standards as set by the Teachers Service Commission, including safeguarding learner welfare and confidentiality.

Requirements & Qualifications

  • Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) degree from a recognised institution, with a specialisation appropriate to primary or early grade teaching.
  • Full registration with the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) and possession of a valid teaching certificate or practising licence.
  • Basic ICT proficiency, including the ability to operate a computer, use educational software or applications, and integrate digital content into lessons in line with CBE resource requirements.
  • Understanding of Kenya’s Competency-Based Curriculum, its learning areas, assessment modes, and its emphasis on developing critical thinking, creativity, and communication skills.
  • Classroom management experience, whether through teaching practice or paid employment, with the ability to engage learners of mixed abilities.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills in English, and ideally Kiswahili, for instruction and parent engagement.
