Inspired Education is the leading global group of premium schools, with a portfolio of 118 premium private schools spanning 6 continents which utilise proven educational practices from every corner of the globe, ensuring over 90,000 students receive a world-class learning experience from Kindergarten to Year 13.

In 27 countries, Inspired schools are individually developed and anchored in the vibrant cultures of their respective locations. They collectively form an international family of schools that nurtures each student's academic and personal development in a progressive, dynamic, and innovative learning environment.

By joining our award-winning team of over 13,000 employees, you can work in state-of-the-art facilities alongside industry-renowned educators and leaders in some of the world's most desirable locations. We invest heavily in our team members who enjoy industry-leading professional development, exceptional career opportunities, and mobility across our group.

ROLE SUMMARY:

Inspired Online Schools, part of the Inspired Education group, is a group of online schools, including King’s InterHigh, the leading British Curriculum Online School with over 6,000 students globally. King's InterHigh has been at the forefront of online education, providing a complete online program via our state-of-the-art learning portal and offering an excellent education without borders.

As a part of our mission to bring excellence in education to more students in the United States and globally, we are seeking dynamic and motivated teachers to join our team. Reporting to the US Head of Faculty, this role requires a flexible and adaptable individual who can quickly respond to the evolving needs of students and bring innovative technology integrations into their curriculum. Teachers should be skilled in building strong relationships with students and colleagues, delivering challenging and engaging lessons, and differentiating instruction to meet diverse learning needs.

This role will be as a founding faculty member which presents many opportunities to shape and help build a new school. The ideal candidate will be excited to be an essential contributor to growing our school, and eager to develop strong connections with their colleagues, as well as founding families & students.
This teaching position offers the flexibility of remote work. Proximity to the DC metro area is preferred to facilitate in-person collaboration with colleagues and school leaders, but it is not a requirement. This role will involve close partnership with our teaching team and may require occasional travel within the US.

Join us and experience a work environment that values flexibility, innovation, and the power of personal connections!
