Computer Science has been offered as an IB subject at Le Rosey since 2017, and there is increased student interest in technology and technology activities as well as demand for Computer Science at the IB.

• the energy, enthusiasm and creativity to inspire an international student body to develop IT skills both as part of an academic curriculum and as an adjunct to it
• an interest in international education and the outlook required to teach children from over 70 nationalities.

A small proportion of the successful candidate’s timetable may depend on his/her skills, qualifications, experience and interests.

Candidates should note that the post is residential. On-campus accommodation is provided and conditions of work are attractive. The successful applicant will be expected to play an active role in boarding life, and a willingness to contribute to the co-curricular programme and support the pastoral life of our school is essential.
