Kspace International School is currently seeking staff members to work specifically with our youngest babies and students, aged 4 months to 3 years old.

Our International Pre-Nursery and Nursery students (14 months to 3 years) need assistance with basic skills and functions i.e. toilet training, eating, managing personal belongings, separation anxiety support, outdoor trips, motor skills development and formative language. This area of our international school provides care and education to children via a set curriculum, which is taught in a musical and creative atmosphere. This is not a crèche or ‘childcare’ facility so teachers must be used to working to (and developing) lesson plans, planning events, writing brief reports and liaising with parents.

* Excellent communication skills with parents

All Kspace classes have a strong emphasis on fun and creativity, and we offer our team a bright and lively atmosphere to work in.
