The Successful Candidate
All candidates will have a:
• Competency based professional interview
• Qualification and ID check
• DBS check (for UK based candidates)
• Overseas police clearance (for overseas
candidates)
Some of the students you will be working
with have little to no English; therefore good
communication skills and an eagerness to
learn the culture is essential. Any previous
experience in working with children is
desirable.
NB:This is to ensure that they meet the ‘CapitaTeachsafe’
Quality Mark.
