About the Role

The Company is seeking a Head of Bilingual Education to lead its dynamic and diverse learning community. The successful candidate will be responsible for inspiring and guiding students on their academic, social, and emotional journeys, with a strong emphasis on fostering a multicultural and inclusive environment. This role requires an expert in bilingual education, particularly in the French and English languages, with a deep understanding of the pedagogies and curricula of both systems. The Head of Bilingual Education will be instrumental in ensuring that the school's educational approach harmonizes the best practices of French and American education, creating a coherent and effective learning experience for students aged 18 months to Grade 8.
