Foundation Phase Teacher (Grade 1)

Teach at a low-fee private school in Khayelitsha where your planning, marking and patience all count. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

The site is in Khayelitsha; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Start date: as soon as possible for the right person.
