SKOLA Summer Jobs 2025

We commit to keeping our students and staff safe. We follow safer recruitment procedures. This includes pre-appointment checks: references, an enhanced DBS, an overseas police check, and a qualification check.

 

All staff must maintain a safe, welcoming environment. This means following our behaviour management approach and reporting any concerns about adult or student behaviour to the safeguarding lead. For example, sexual harassment or low-level concerns about adult behaviour.

​​

Our Mission is for our students to Learn English and Discover Other Cultures. Our school rules: Ready, Safe, Kind. 

​

You must be motivated to teach English through a weekly, project-based curriculum. The curriculum includes classroom lessons, trips, and a Friday presentation to showcase the learning.

 

We are a learning organisation so you should have an interest in developing and growing as a professional. For example, every teacher will have at least one observation per week, with feedback, to support their growth. We also collect and act on feedback from our staff and students.
