Taaleem requires qualified SEN Teachers for new public-private partnership elementary schools for an August 2024 start.

As a leading education provider in the Middle East, Taaleem continues supporting the UAE Vision and National Agenda 2021, establishing a unique partnership between the government and the private sectors. We currently manage and operate several private-public partnership schools in the UAE, to raise the quality of education; playing a significant role in shaping Emirati youth's present and future lives.

In August 2022, Taaleem was awarded four Emirates Schools Establishment campuses in Dubai, Sharjah, Ras al Khaimah, and Fujairah. This exciting project is the newest addition to an already successful partnership with the UAE Government, expanding Taaleem's portfolio of private-sector-run government schools into the Northern Emirates of the UAE.

Due to the success of Taaleem's partnership with Emirates Schools Establishment, this summer 2024, we will be awarded additional new campuses and we are therefore looking for outstanding senior leaders, teachers, and support staff to join our growing family!
