Egypt - Year 3 Teacher and Two Whole School Cover Teachers Two year experienced teachers are needed for an established British curriculum school located on the outskirts of Cairo.

There are no visa restrictions on age which is a unique selling point for the school. Salaries may not appear competitive but with a very low cost of living and one of the most exciting historical, archeological and diving adventures on your doorstop you would have to think twice about turning away from this unique opportunity.  Please note that the school will be conducting telephone/Skype interviews during March.  They will also be visiting London in April for face to face interviews on a proposed date to be confirmed. (2 / S, TC2, M2 / no age limit)
