# Science Teachers – GEMS Education

A Science Teacher at a GEMS school in Dubai delivers science instruction, typically covering combined or general science at younger year levels before students specialize into individual sciences, within an internationally benchmarked curriculum guided by the IB Learner Profile or a similar framework. The role blends classroom theory with hands-on practical work across physics, chemistry, and biology topics depending on the year group taught.

Day to day, this means planning lessons that build genuine understanding of scientific concepts and the scientific method, running safe and engaging practical demonstrations and experiments, assessing student work, and preparing students for progression into specialized sciences or external examinations. Because general science spans multiple disciplines, the role often requires broader subject versatility than teaching a single specialized science, along with strong classroom and lab management skills.

Beyond the classroom, GEMS teachers are expected to contribute to the school community through pastoral duties, extracurricular involvement such as science clubs or STEM competitions, and consistently modeling the school’s values in their interactions with students. Working within a large school network also means access to shared curriculum planning resources and professional development, alongside consistent expectations across the group’s schools.

This suits a versatile, qualified science teacher who enjoys working across multiple scientific disciplines, is comfortable managing practical lab work safely, and wants to be part of a large, internationally minded school community.

## Requirements

- Bachelor’s degree in a Science discipline or Education; recognized teaching qualification (PGCE, B.Ed, or equivalent)

- Proven classroom teaching experience in general or combined science, ideally within an international curriculum

- Experience planning and safely supervising laboratory practical sessions across science disciplines

- Strong lesson planning and differentiation skills for mixed-ability classrooms

- Excellent classroom and lab management skills

- Willingness to contribute to pastoral care and extracurricular STEM activities

- Alignment with the school’s values and the IB Learner Profile or equivalent framework
