# English Teacher – Primary – GEMS Education

This Primary English Teacher role at GEMS United Indian School, Abu Dhabi, is focused on the foundational stage of English literacy within a CBSE-curriculum school – the years where reading fluency, phonics, vocabulary, and early written expression get built, and where a strong teacher’s impact compounds across every subject a child studies afterward.

The role covers planning and delivering primary English lessons that build reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills in an age-appropriate, engaging way, tracking early literacy development closely, and adapting quickly when a young learner needs extra support. Primary classrooms bring a genuinely wide range of starting points in the same room, so differentiation is a constant, practical part of the job rather than an occasional planning exercise.

Expect close collaboration with parents at this stage – primary English progress is something families track closely – alongside the standard responsibilities of assessment, reporting, and contribution to the wider primary English team’s planning.

Suits a qualified primary teacher with a genuine passion for early literacy development, ideally with CBSE or similarly structured curriculum experience, who enjoys the particular energy and pace of a primary classroom.

## Requirements

- Bachelor of Arts / Master of Arts in English or Social Studies

- Bachelor of Education (B.Ed) from an accredited, non-distance/non-open-university programme

- Experience teaching Primary English, ideally within a CBSE or similar curriculum

- Strong grasp of early literacy development – phonics, reading fluency, and early writing

- Ability to differentiate instruction across a wide range of starting abilities

- Strong communication skills for regular parent engagement at the primary stage
