OBJECTIVES

We are looking for a qualified Maths Teacher who is keen to share their love of the subject with their pupils.

Most of our pupils are Chinese and we help them on their journey to developing fluency in English as they progress through the school before going to university abroad (mainly in the UK and US).



Teachers at Huili School Nantong educate pupils according to the Huili philosophy and ethos. They support every pupil’s growth and development, encouraging them to be Inspired, Intellectual, Independent, Individual and Inclusive. Teachers must demonstrate an understanding of the wider curriculum and administrative needs of the school, achieve high academic standards and be responsive to the needs of the pupils in their care. Most teachers will also be form tutors. In some cases, alternative responsibilities will take the place of tutoring. Teachers are also expected to commit to our wider co-curricular programme and also be involved in the boarding life of the school.
