The Opportunity

  • Sadhguru School is a charity school in Western Uganda providing a Cambridge education to children from vulnerable communities. We believe every child deserves the opportunity to discover their potential regardless of their background.
  • Our approach combines academic excellence with Project Based Learning, practical learning, critical thinking, creativity, collaboration and character development. We want students to understand the world, question it, and develop the confidence to improve it. We are expanding our STEM team and are looking for passionate teachers who share this vision.

The Role

  • We are recruiting teachers who can teach Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry or Biology at Key Stage 3 and/or Key Stage 4. Applicants may specialise in one subject or be able to teach a combination of two or more; candidates who can teach multiple STEM subjects are encouraged to apply, but you do not need to teach all four subjects to be considered.
  • We welcome applications from Mathematics teachers, Physics teachers, Chemistry teachers, Biology teachers, Mathematics & Physics teachers, Biology & Chemistry teachers, and teachers qualified to teach multiple sciences. Experience with the Cambridge curriculum, Cambridge Lower Secondary, Cambridge IGCSE, or an equivalent international curriculum is highly desirable.

What You'll Do

  • Plan and deliver engaging, high-quality lessons aligned with the Cambridge curriculum.
  • Inspire curiosity through practical, inquiry-based and student-centred learning.
  • Use experiments, investigations and real-world examples to make STEM meaningful.
  • Support Project Based Learning by helping students solve authentic community challenges.
  • Assess student progress and use assessment to improve learning.
  • Differentiate teaching to support students with diverse learning needs.
  • Work collaboratively with colleagues to strengthen our STEM programme.
  • Contribute to the wider life of the school through clubs, exhibitions, fieldwork and extracurricular activities.

Who We're Looking For

  • Teachers who have excellent subject knowledge in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry or Biology.
  • Educators who can explain complex concepts clearly and inspire students to think independently.
  • Believers that learning should be practical, engaging and connected to everyday life.
  • Individuals who encourage curiosity, questioning, experimentation and problem-solving.
  • Reflective, collaborative practitioners committed to continuous professional growth.
  • Educators who believe every child deserves a high-quality education regardless of background.
  • Individuals who enjoy contributing to a growing school where innovation and initiative are valued.
  • Our students learn best by doing. We therefore value teachers who can design practical learning experiences using laboratory investigations, fieldwork, locally available materials and creative teaching approaches.

Essential

  • A Bachelor's degree in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology or a related STEM discipline.
  • A recognised teaching qualification.
  • Experience teaching KS3 and/or KS4.
  • Strong spoken and written English.
  • Excellent classroom management and communication skills.
  • A commitment to safeguarding and child protection.

Desirable

  • Cambridge Lower Secondary or Cambridge IGCSE experience.
  • Experience with Project Based Learning or inquiry-based learning.
  • Experience teaching more than one STEM subject.
  • Experience working in an international or developing school environment.

What We Offer

  • Joining Sadhguru School means becoming part of a purpose-driven community where your work has a lasting impact. You will have opportunities to teach within a Cambridge curriculum environment, help shape a growing STEM programme, work alongside committed and supportive colleagues, participate in continuous professional development, develop interdisciplinary and project-based learning experiences, and inspire young people from underserved communities to pursue ambitious futures.
