The Braeburn Group of International Schools is committed to attracting, developing and retaining the very best teachers. Majority of their schools are CIS (Council of International Schools) accredited and IAPS (Independent Association of Prep Schools) and COBIS (Council of Overseas British International Schools) members.

They pride themselves in maintaining high teacher retention (for the international market) by focusing on three key areas, the teaching environment, supporting the professional development of their teachers and making sure the teachers are enjoying their time inside and outside the classroom.

Teaching environment

English is the language of instruction and the schools have small class sizes, motivated students and high standards. The group’s vision is to develop confident individuals, responsible citizens and learners enjoying success.

They  have a friendly, caring and supportive environment, with excellent support staff and facilities; empowering their teachers to in turn create an exceptional learning environment for the students. With a community of nearly 100 different nationalities and cultures, they are proud to call themselves international in every sense, as working in a diverse multicultural environment offers the opportunity to broaden knowledge and experience.

Supporting their teachers

The schools offer a comprehensive professional development programme, with many local and international providers. They  strive in identifying potential in their staff and offer the appropriate training including both InSeT and leadership programmes, and back this up by actively promoting staff within the group.

Besides this, they also have links to a number of universities, both local and overseas and  are the local provider of the International Post Graduate Certificate of Educational (PGCEi) through the University of Nottingham.

They belong to both the Kenyan and Tanzanian international schools associations, which allows for further opportunities for training and the sharing of good practice.

Outside the classroom

Braeburn’s schools are located in international hubs with opportunities for sport, socialising and travel are extensive, with white sandy beaches, game parks and Africa’s highest mountains all within easy reach.

The following job opportunities have arisen at the schools:
