OPEN SKY INTERNATIONAL MOROCCO IS LOOKING FOR ENGLISH-SPEAKING PRE-SCHOOL TEACHERS

Open Sky International's first school in Morocco will open for pupils in September 2021, and will be situated in Californie, Casablanca. It will be one of the first international branches opened by OSI, an ambitious and innovative new schools’ group based in Paris, and other OSI schools will be opening in various locations in Morocco, Egypt and internationally over the next five years. We intend to very quickly become one of the best schools in Morocco and our aspirations for our pupils will be high.

The school’s curriculum is broad and incorporates the best aspects of a range of international systems. In the pre-school (or the maternelle as it is called in French) children follow a programme which is very similar in ethos to the UK Early Years curriculum, and from the primary, all pupils follow a bilingual timetable, taking half of their classes in French and the remainder in English. Arabic will also be an important part of the curriculum. During its first year, the school will welcome pupils from the ages of 2 to 11 years old, and will serve children from both the Moroccan and expatriate communities in Casablanca and we plan to open our first secondary cohort in 2022.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for teachers who want to make a powerful impact on the lives of the children that they teach, and are motivated, flexible, creative and hard-working. The successful applicant will be:

  • An excellent Early Years practitioner, with a real passion for helping very young children to flourish and achieve
  • Bilingual English-French with a knowledge of Arabic
  • Keen to develop their own professional expertise
  • Able to support and promote the school’s values
  • Keen to experience new cultures and ideas, and open to the challenges that living and working internationally will bring
  • Ideally experienced in working with pupils for whom English is not their first language

All successful candidates will have an appropriate qualification, with a PGCE or other qualification leading to Qualified Teacher Status or similar. A minimum of two years’ experience in teaching the relevant age range is required. 

Why choose us?

OSI offers you the chance to become a part of a committed, international team. We intend to establish further schools to implement our vision for bilingual education over the next few years, and this gives our teachers the opportunity to become part of an exciting new project. In addition, OSI offers a competitive salary.
