The schools are supported by WCL School Management Services. 1 The Teachers The teachers will have all met the following requirements: Certified teaching status through a recognised qualification such as a degree in Education, PGCE or equivalent. They will have proven experience teaching an international curriculum at primary level and must have experience of teaching an English language curriculum. A deep knowledge and proven experience of current best practice in the field of teaching and learning and classroom management. Proven working experience in education; they will be able to demonstrate knowledge and skill in professional practice as it relates to diverse and international environments. Ability to work collaboratively within a small team. Ability to manage a range of internal and external stakeholders. The Curriculum Shell and Shell affiliated schools set out to provide a suitable education to enable children to reach and maintain the highest standard possible. The intention is that children will fit in well to any educational setting when they transfer. All Shell and Shell affiliated schools work according to the International Primary Curriculum (IPC). For further information about the IPC, please visit www.greatlearning.com/ipc/ Language and mathematics are taught using the National Curriculum for England or a similar curriculum. International Schools’ Assessments are used to monitor achievement in these subjects. School life The pupil-teacher ratio is lower than average so that children whose first language is different from the language of instruction and those with specific educational needs, can receive extra help. The low ratio also takes into account the fact that children may enter and leave the school during the academic year and may miss periods of schooling when parents have, for operational reasons, to take holidays in term time. Few children in Shell schools spend more than four years in the same location. The terms, holidays and hours of work at Shell and Shell-affiliated schools are similar to those in the UK and other European countries. Everyone is expected to contribute fully to the life of the school and the wider expatriate community, and there are many opportunities to do so. Most parents are supportive and very interested and involved in their children’s education. Consultation evenings and curriculum events form part of the normal school activities, as do staff meetings and other school based activities. Social life in Shell locations is usually varied and rewarding, although certain activities are subject to local restrictions concerning alcohol and dress. Many people enjoy the good sporting facilities that are offered and take part in community events. 2
