Job overview

This exciting role offers the chance to make an immediate impact as we grow our secondary provision and launch our Key Stage 4 curriculum.

We are seeking an inspiring and committed science teacher to join our expanding faculty.

With the recent addition of our state-of-the-art Science and Technology Block, this role presents an outstanding opportunity for a passionate and skilled educator to inspire and challenge pupils within a world-class learning environment.

We are looking for someone who will ignite curiosity in science, motivate pupils to achieve their best, and contribute to the continued growth of our upper school provision. The successful candidate will bring excellent subject knowledge, a proven track record of high-quality teaching, and the ability to engage and support students of all abilities.

The science teacher will also:

We invite you to review our applicant information pack for a full overview of our school and the role.

The successful applicant will join our team for the start of the 2026/2027 academic year.

Whether you are considering your first overseas post or bring a wealth of international experience, Kuwait offers a unique opportunity that could positively shape your life and career.

Female applicants: please note an important point regarding residency and sponsorship in Kuwait. Currently, women are not permitted to sponsor dependents.

This means you would not be able to sponsor a husband or children for residency in Kuwait.

Conversely, a husband could also explore employment opportunities in Kuwait, and if successful, he would be able to obtain his own residency and then sponsor children.

We understand this may be a significant consideration, so we wish to be fully transparent at the point of application.

The English School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. As per our safer recruitment policy, applicants must be prepared to undergo stringent child protection screening including, but not limited to, checks with past employers and criminal records checks.
