This is an exciting opportunity to join the highly successful Aldar family and introduce the subject of Psychology to students at GCSE and A-level.

The children are taught the English National Curriculum – tailored to be meaningful to children living in Al Ain. Facilities at the school are excellent and include a large astro-turf field, two swimming pools, well-stocked library, a large multi-purpose sports hall, an auditorium and outdoor play areas. It is an exciting, challenging and enjoyable school to work in where achievement for pupils is at the heart of all we do. The school has achieved outstanding levels of progress and attainment, supported by rigorous tracking of data and assessment in all areas of the curriculum. Candidates must have a secure knowledge of teaching GCSE and A-level Psychology. Potential candidates must demonstrate a proven track record of implementing effective strategies to raise standards and plug gaps in learning to ensure outstanding progress for all. They will be able to demonstrate leadership skills/experiences at a variety of levels and to be effective in working collaboratively in a team. Successful candidates will find themselves welcomed into a wonderful school family community, where staff are held in high regard by pupil, parents and school leadership alike. Al Ain is a beautiful, green city that offers an affordable lifestyle within the UAE, whilst offering easy access to Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Oman all within a short drive. Al Ain boasts its own tourist attractions in the form of Al Ain Zoo, Jebel Hafeet mountain, Al Ain Oasis, as well as leisure facilities including hotels, malls, golf and Rugby club, shooting range, swimming pools, Al Ain Raceway and much more. We offer a competitive package including relocation, annual flight allowance, medical insurance, end of service gratuity and a 4.5 day working week empowering staff wellbeing.
