Compass International School Doha was established in 2006 to provide a premium British education to both expatriate and local Qatari families. Al Themaid and Madinat Khalifa educate students from Early Years through to Secondary. We are proud of our outstanding teachers and our community feel.

Join our dynamic international education environment, where you will deliver a bespoke curriculum, built on the English National Curriculum. We are seeking an inspiring, energetic, and highly creative Whole School Performing Arts Teacher to lead and develop our performing arts provision across the school. You will challenge your students to be ambitious learners, seeking out and implementing innovative teaching practices to enhance our students' experience and their outcomes.

The successful candidate will play a key role in supporting large-scale school productions, concerts, showcases and community performances, contributing creatively to an ambitious and growing performing arts programme. This role works across our campuses and age phases, requiring a teacher who thrives in collaborative environments and enjoys building a cohesive performing arts culture across the school.

You will create a learning culture in your classroom where students are supported, challenged, and inspired to be the best they can be. Students in your classes will believe there are no limits to what can be achieved. You will have an inclusive approach to EAL, supporting students with varying levels of English to access the curriculum. You will not only teach your subject content, but also actively develop language, literacy and communication fluency within your lessons.

Your expertise and planning adaptability will allow you to map out pathways for all students to progress in your subject, creating opportunities for all learners to achieve success based on individualised targets. You will be invested in the promotion of your subject both within and beyond the classroom. You will seek out opportunities for visits and visitors to enrich the learning, as well as contributing to our ECA programme after school.
