Pre Primary School Teacher - Job Description

We provide a strong educational foundation for young children, 3 to 6 years old focusing on the whole child in areas such as social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development. We offer transitional learning environments based on the NCF-FS curriculum and incorporating elements of Early Childhood best practices. The environment encompass free movement between indoor and outdoor learning spaces, extensive outdoor playgrounds, garden and a play station.

We believe that every child needs a positive environment in which to learn, grow, and develop, and in a set-ting that inspires creativity and imagination. We provide them with the individual care they need to flourish and help them to find their voice and feel confident expressing themselves.

Children in our school are given specialized attention and resources to enhance their educational journey. Each child is seen as their own unique person, and we work to foster an educational environment where children are free to be themselves and learn with compassion, curiosity, and innovation. They need to be en-couraged to rise to challenges with determination, perseverance and, most importantly, a smile on their faces.
