Reach British School was founded in 2014 and aims to offer an outstanding British-style education to children in the local community. The school currently has over 1,000 students and will grow to a capacity of 2,100. The students come from 44 different nationalities although the majority, about 70%, are local Emirati children or from other Arabic countries.

The school follows the British national curriculum. The School’s mission is to offer a meaningful education for students from different cultures and origins and to equip them with the knowledge and skills for a successful future after they leave school. Their learning must be both relevant and purposeful. Besides acquiring literacy and numeracy skills and competence with ICT,

Reach British School also endeavors to provide a holistic education to students, so that they grow into confident, caring, and contributing citizens. They must also understand the vital need to make our world a sustainable place to live. Reach British School recognizes that the world is a competitive place and only an understanding of the competition ahead will give the students the ability to fulfill their potential for success.

The students will largely be drawn from families in the local community who desire an international education for their children. The school will be a high quality, purpose-built facility designed in sections to accommodate early years provision, primary and secondary.

We are seeking to appoint motivated, highly skilled, enthusiastic, and dedicated teachers who would work alongside, develop and support a multi-cultural staff team in our continued pursuit of excellence.

We are seeking teachers who have at least two years of teaching experience who have a BA and PGCE or a BEd in primary education. English language acquisition and early literacy development are key to our success and experience in this would be an advantage.

Reach British School is owned and operated by International Schools Partnership, an ever-growing global family of schools where the child's learning is at the core of everything we do. Our schools are located around the globe with more outstanding centers of educational excellence joining our partnership all the time. We currently have 15 partner schools with around 13,000 children from 3-18 years of age studying in the United Kingdom, Spain, Mexico, and the Middle East.
