United Nations International School[edit]
The United Nations International School (UNIS) was established in 1947 by a group of United Nations parents to promote an international education for their children, while preserving their diverse cultural heritages. This was the very first school offering the International Baccalaureate Program. The school promotes the appreciation of the diversity of persons and cultures, provides an optimal environment for learning and teaching, and offers a global curriculum that inspires in its students the spirit and ideals of the United Nations Charter.[5]
International school teacher[edit]
An international school teacher or educator is someone engaged in the education of pupils in schools other than their country of citizenship. The term generally refers to teachers who are teaching in private or independent schools (Savva,2013).[6] While these schools are private there is an important distinction between private for-profit and private non-for profit schools (Savva, 2013).[6]
Faculty at international schools are usually from or certified by the standards of their country of origin.[6]
However there are exceptions, the most common of which the international school requires a teacher trained specifically for an international syllabus or for teaching a foreign language rare to the international school's country of origin.[citation needed]
Hiring is frequently done at large international job fairs, such as the ones held by the Council of International Schools (CIS), where schools can interview and hire several teachers at once.[7] There are also a handful of agencies which specialize in recruiting international teachers. Over the years it has become more difficult to recruit young international teachers, partly because of security concerns and the trend towards less attractive compensation packages.[2] In some countries such as South Korea, recent visa changes have also made it more difficult to obtain both qualified and unqualified teachers.[citation needed]
