    Resident Science Teachers

    Are you looking for an extraordinary school where the learners are excited, inquisitive and have to be convinced to go home at the end of the day? Are you a recent Bachelor of Education/Science/Engineering graduate with between 2-6+ years of experience looking to build your teaching experience in a world-class institution? If you answered yes to these questions then you are a viable candidate to be a Resident Teacher at Nova Academies at our school opening in Nairobi in late 2017. We have a world leading teaching and learning approach that is inquiry based and student-centered and an apprenticeship model that brings your studies and ambitions to life.

     

    Imagine a world in which every young person in Africa attends a school that truly sets them up for success in the 21st century. A school that demands excellence, helps students learn by doing and exploring rather than by memorizing, equips students with globally competitive science and technology skills, and builds the character and growth mindset that will shape the rest of their lives.

     

    Now imagine that this school is not in one town, in one country, but in every town, in every country. This is what we imagine, and we want you to help make it happen.

     

    About Nova Academies

     

    One year ago we launched a new venture to build the first pan-African network of high-quality, affordable primary and secondary schools. In 2016 we will be operating three schools—two in South Africa and one in Kenya—and gearing up for rapid growth. Our venture is structured as a social enterprise to enable us to attract the investment that will be needed to launch 100 schools and reach tens of thousands of students in the next decade.

     

    Our Team Culture Is Designed To Reinforce Our Vision

     

      • We model the growth mindset we want our students to embody: you are challenged every day and, as a result, you grow more than at any other point in your life
      • We pursue excellence in every detail and do whatever it takes to produce great work quickly
      • We are radically open: we share tough messages and our own vulnerabilities because doing so helps us grow
      • We put our students before our team, and our team before ourselves
      • We bring infectious energy, enthusiasm and fun to everything we do because joy fuels the hardest work and learning
