Gimnasio Colombo Britanico
ColombiaJob Description
We are seeking an exceptional Mathematics Teacher for Lower Primary (Years 1 & 2) to join a dynamic, internationally oriented academic community committed to delivering world-class education through the Cambridge Primary Programme.
If you are passionate about early numeracy, believe in the power of inquiry-based learning, and thrive in a rigorous yet nurturing classroom environment, this opportunity is designed for you.
Qualifications and Professional Requirements
The position requires a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics, Mathematics Education, Early Childhood Education, Primary Education, or a closely related field, preferably obtained from a recognised institution. Postgraduate studies in Mathematics Education, Curriculum and Instruction, or Educational Psychology are considered a strong asset.
Regarding Cambridge credentials, the Cambridge International Certificate for Teachers and Trainers (CICTT) or the Cambridge Primary Teaching Award is highly desirable; candidates not yet holding this certification must demonstrate willingness to undertake Cambridge-endorsed professional development upon appointment. A valid teaching licence or professional registration is equally required.
English proficiency at a minimum C1 level of the Common European Framework of Reference is mandatory, demonstrated by an internationally recognised credential such as IELTS ≥ 7.0, TOEFL iBT ≥ 95, or Cambridge C1 Advanced / C2 Proficiency. The role further requires a minimum of three years of documented classroom experience teaching Mathematics at the primary level, preferably within a bilingual or internationally accredited school environment. Familiarity with the Singapore Mathematics curriculum framework — particularly its Pentagon Model and Concrete–Pictorial–Abstract sequencing — is considered a significant differentiating asset.
On a personal level, the post-holder is expected to demonstrate a genuinely collaborative disposition, sustained reflective practice, and a strong commitment to child safeguarding and professional ethics. Cultural responsiveness, understood as an active awareness of the bilingual, multicultural composition of the school community, is essential, as is the organisational effectiveness required to manage instructional, assessment, and administrative responsibilities with precision and reliability.

With 24 instructional hours per week and 6 hours dedicated to collaborative planning and professional dialogue, your timetable is built to protect what matters most: the quality of your teaching and the depth of your professional relationships.
