Job overview
A Year 5 Primary teacher is sought for Southern International School Hat Yai, a co-educational, pre-school to age 18 British International School in the prosperous and friendly southern Thai city of Hat Yai. We are an accredited examination centre for Cambridge International Examinations and OxfordAQA. We received the ISQM Silver accreditation through the Education Development Trust in June 2019.  We are also the first whole school with nursery in Thailand to be awarded the 'Quality Counts' mark at Platinum level, the highest possible level by the National Day Nurseries Association, (NDNA).

Southern International School Hat Yai (SIH) is an ambitious school with a ‘can-do’ attitude and we are looking for a teacher who can bring a love of learning to the classroom, develop enquiring minds and inspire our students to achieve the best results possible. 

Requirements

The successful applicant will:    

  • Be a qualified Primary Teacher with appropriate teaching qualification (i.e. B.Ed. and/or PGCE)   

  • For this specific role, are looking for someone with confidence and a proven track record of outstanding results, teaching in Key Stage 2

  • Have knowledge of the national curriculum of England and its associated assessment practices   

  • Possess a strong focus on the pastoral care of children, understanding the balance between academic and social progress and support, as well as the ability to identify safeguarding concerns.  

  • Possess excellent interpersonal skills and a positive approach to both individual and collaborative professional development. 

This post would suit an experienced teacher or an NQT who wants to start their international teaching career in a small, supportive environment. Given that most of our students have English as their second language, the abilities to support language learning, differentiate effectively and adopt a patient approach are vital.

This post is initially for maternity cover until July 2027 but it will be an 18-month contract until July 2028 with a KS1 or KS2 position available for the 2027-2028 academic year.

Please upload an up-to-date CV, including details of two referees.

Our children are mostly Thai and from other Asian countries with parents who are committed to giving their children an international education. Our parents are extremely loyal and supportive and participate in many school events and activities.

The successful candidate will be joining the school at an exciting period in its development. There are opportunities to develop yourself professionally and personally in a safe, happy, supportive environment. Hat Yai in Songkhla province has grown from a small but busy commercial town into a lively but manageable city of a little over a million, surrounded by rice paddies, forested hills and waterfalls. The tourist hot spots of Krabi, Trang and Phuket are easily accessible for long weekend trips, but there are several unspoiled destinations much closer to home. New upmarket bistros and restaurants are springing up seemingly overnight, adding to the cosmopolitan feel of this welcoming city. Accommodation is cheap and varied, from Thai-style houses to newly built, self-contained condominiums with shared swimming pools.
