Education Support Counselor

Two year renewable contract

We are looking for an experienced counselor to provide support for children with learning difficulties or with emotional problems as well as gifted and talented students. The new counselor will work alongside our present counselor who has established a very successful program of education support across the whole school.

Green Oasis is an International School close to the border with Hong Kong. We have students from reception through to year 11. Children at the school follow the English National Curriculum and go on to study the Cambridge International Curriculum in the secondary school up to IGCSE level. Many of the children are from Chinese backgrounds and some have a limited knowledge of English when they arrive at the school. Every class in the Primary school has a teaching partner who is able to speak in both Mandarin and English.

The school provides expatriate staff with a very good salary package which includes flights for teacher, spouse and any children at the start and end of the contract, a mid-contract flight allowance and comprehensive medical insurance for teacher and spouse and a monthly housing allowance. A two month gratuity is paid at the end of a two year contract.
