Thank you for your interest in working at Horizon Sendai Primary School.

Horizon Sendai Primary School is a Japanese Article-one school providing compulsory elementary education. We follow the Japanese National Curriculum Guidelines as well as the standards and practices of the IB Primary Years Programme as a PYP candidate school. We have also received a "Special Designated School" status from the Ministry of Education to implement an English Immersion Program. Depending on the subject we use English and/or Japanese as the language of instruction. Each class is assigned an English Homeroom Teacher and a Japanese Homeroom Teacher requiring both teachers to work collaboratively.

We want to build an outstanding faculty who provide a safe, nurturing environment in which students learn, foster intellectual rigor and independent thinking, and promote high standards, collegiality, and a strong sense of community.

We value candidates who exhibit a passion for teaching, who have experience with students from diverse backgrounds, whose pursuit of professional development is keen and ongoing, and whose academic background and teaching experience are directly relevant to the position.

This is an excellent opportunity for the right teacher to join an excellent team to teach and work in Sendai, the largest urban center in Northern Japan. Working at Horizon Sendai Primary School provides an appealing, cleaner and greener, authentically Japanese, alternative to a place like Tokyo. Please submit your application following our guidelines, to allow us to consider whether we share a match in needs and interests.

Our school is exempt from Japanese border enforcement measures at the moment and you will be able to enter Japan before your contract starts.
