Upper School Mathematics Teacher
About This Role
Welcome to Harrow Shanghai! We are a distinguished international school that follows the British curriculum, situated in one of the world's most vibrant cities.
Our institution provides a comprehensive British education from Early Years through to Upper Sixth, all within a modern, purpose-built campus just 35 minutes from the city center. Shanghai offers a dynamic lifestyle with an energetic atmosphere that inspires both students and staff alike.
Established in September 2016, our school has rapidly become one of China's top international institutions. Working at Harrow is truly rewarding. Our students are engaged, ambitious, and hardworking; their parents are incredibly supportive, and our staff form a dedicated, close-knit community. The strength of our community is remarkable. Our pupils consistently achieve high results both academically and in extracurricular activities, gaining admission to some of the world’s most prestigious universities, including Oxbridge. In the past four years, our Upper Sixth students have averaged nearly 75% A*/A grades across all A Levels, and our IGCSE results are equally impressive, reflecting significant progress among our younger learners.
However, Harrow is not solely about academic excellence. Our students thrive in various areas, including music, drama, sports, and the arts, while also engaging in community service activities.
The School is currently looking to fill the final Mathematics teaching position for August 2025.
The successful candidate will be responsible for teaching a range of ages and abilities; however, most of our students demonstrate strong mathematical skills. We seek educators who are passionate about teaching, capable of challenging diverse student abilities, and who genuinely enjoy working with children. We particularly welcome applications from teachers skilled in teaching A Level Mathematics and Further Mathematics, as well as those eager to inspire younger students. We are especially interested in candidates who have received training and possess experience from the UK, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, or the US.
Successful applicants can anticipate a competitive salary, a performance-related bonus, accommodation, medical and flight benefits, and full tuition fee remission for up to two children.
Additionally, becoming part of the AISL Harrow Group of schools, which closely collaborates with Harrow London and is rapidly expanding, offers excellent opportunities for career advancement. This includes access to the recently launched AISL Academy for Professional Learning and a variety of accredited courses available through our partnership with UCL.
