Primary teachers

In 2000, 164 countries committed to achieving Education for All by 2015. As access to education is improving, enrolment figures are rising fast, and developing communities now urgently need qualified teachers to deliver quality education. 

We’re looking for primary teachers to deliver ‘in service’ teacher training. You’ll work with serving teachers in a cluster of primary schools, introducing them to more participatory, child centred methodology.  You’ll be observing teachers and feeding back and also helping them to develop materials using local resources. You’ll work with teachers to improve education programmes by increasing the quality of education and teaching methods.

You’ll be a qualified primary teacher with at least two years experience.

You could be working in countries like Eritrea, China, Ethiopia, Rwanda and Malawi.
