Working here
A School That Kept Its Staff
When Cambridge International School Sudan opened its campus in Cairo, it did not recruit a new faculty and start again. The leadership came, the teachers came, and the methods came with them. That says more about what it is like to work here than any advertisement could.
We teach the British curriculum from Early Years through to IGCSE, in a school small enough that every member of staff knows the pupils by name. Teachers are given the authority to teach properly, and are supported rather than supervised.
We welcome applications from qualified teachers, teaching assistants and administrative staff, whether you are already in Cairo or planning a move.
Recruitment partner
In Partnership With Ishtaghel
Cambridge Horizon and Cambridge International School Sudan publish every vacancy through Ishtaghel, the online job marketplace serving Sudan and Egypt.
Why we chose them
Ishtaghel was built for exactly the community our schools serve. Its listings cover Sudan and Egypt, it works in Arabic as well as English, and it reaches Sudanese professionals in Cairo who might never see a vacancy posted anywhere else.
For a school that moved from Khartoum to Cairo and brought its people with it, that is the right place to look for the next teacher.
What you will find there
All current teaching, teaching assistant and administrative posts at both schools, with the subject, stage and closing date set out in full. You can apply directly through the platform, and follow the school so that new posts reach you first.
What we look for
The Qualities That Matter to Us
Command of the subject
Teachers who know their subject deeply enough to answer the question behind the question, and to teach it more than one way when the first does not land.
Experience of the British curriculum
Familiarity with the British curriculum and IGCSE examinations, or a clear willingness to learn it properly with the support of colleagues who already have.
Patience with children
Many of our pupils have moved country, changed schools and lost time. The teachers who do well here are the ones who understand what that costs a child.
Arabic and English
Lessons are delivered in English. Being able to speak with parents in Arabic is not required for every post, but it is always valued.
