Secondary Teacher of Geography (and/or Business Studies)

About the school

Richmond Park School is an exciting new project located in a highly attractive residential area well connected to the centre of Madrid. The school opened with Early Years and Primary in September 2019 and is led by two highly experienced leaders of education for Primary and Secondary, supported by a strong private company with a vast experience of British education in Spain. As planned, the school is growing substantially. Early Years through to Year 6 are already at full capacity with three classes per year group. The Secondary section has two classes per year group and will extend to three classes year by year as the lower classes move up. An exciting new phase began in September 2022 when students inaugurated the modern and spacious secondary building. Our Year 11 cohorts have achieved excellent IGCSEs results and the school introduced the International Baccalaureate Diploma for our Year 12 and 13 students, following a successful authorisation process. A large and exciting brand new International Baccalaureate Centre with superb facilities opened in September 2025.

The school focuses on the academic and holistic development of each pupil. Our broad curriculum, further extended through co-curricular projects and experiences, empowers all pupils to fulfil their potential through acquiring high-level knowledge, deep understanding, and extensive skills. Pupils become creative, independent, and reflective thinkers and effective communicators. Equally important, core moral and ethical values, such as respect, kindness, and integrity, underpin the educational process. We aspire for our pupils to be generous and supportive, developing a deep commitment to social and environmental action.

Richmond Park School provides a learning environment which is tranquil, but also stimulating. Teachers guide pupils and facilitate their learning, but the pupils themselves often take the lead, thinking, exploring, problem-solving and creating. We believe that if you want to teach, you have to learn and if you want to learn, you also have to teach. 

We are a modern, forward-thinking school and we are committed to develop the digital, communication and thinking skills the pupils will need to be successful in the future.

We are seeking a Secondary teacher of Geography within the IB Diploma with the ability to offer subjects within Humanities such as History in the lower school. We would be very interested in candidates who can also offer Business Studies. We will offer training to teachers who have not taught IB Diploma subjects previously.
