PE Primary Teacher

The British School of Barcelona (BSB) is a great school in a wonderful location. We are an HMC school and were judged by a recent BSO (British Schools Overseas) inspection to be outstanding in every area, including quality of education, safeguarding, pupil welfare and academic outcomes. BSB is a large, very popular school for children aged 3 to 18. Our curriculum is based on the English National Curriculum, and we offer a wide range of GCSEs, A levels and the International Baccalaureate Diploma, all alongside a significant enrichment programme.

Over 2000 pupils from more than 74 nationalities attend the school and over 315 staff work at BSB, across three locations. In 2026 we will be expanding our school, adding a state of the art campus at Maresme, east of Barcelona city. The campus will initially enrol students from Nursery to Year 6 in 2026, expanding to Year 13 in 2028.

This is an exciting new development with a range of specialist facilities including: state of the art classrooms, science labs, fully equipped music and art facilities and rehearsal spaces, dedicated play, social and study spaces, and indoor and outdoor sports facilities all set in stunning surroundings with the mountains as a backdrop and the coast as a frame. This is a truly exceptional setting for learning.

Cogita is a global leader in independent education. Founded in 2004, we are a growing community of 90 schools in 21 countries - in Europe, North America, Latin America, Asia and the Middle East - serving more than 100,000 students. Each of our schools are proudly unique, however our collective purpose is to create an environment where everyone can, "Thrive in a rapidly evolving world".

We are seeking to appoint a permanent, full-time Teacher of Physical Education to join our Maresme campus, starting in September 2026. As a PE Primary Teacher at BSB, you will deliver an engaging and innovative curriculum that inspires young learners to thrive academically, personally, and socially. You will create a positive learning environment, set high expectations, and use both formative and summative assessments to track progress.

Beyond the classroom, you will contribute to whole-school priorities, collaborate with colleagues, and uphold the highest safeguarding standards. This is an exciting opportunity to join a dynamic, forward-thinking school where creativity and excellence are at the heart of everything we do.

We're particularly interested to hear from candidates who are excited about working in a start-up environment. Join a team of enthusiastic individuals who appreciate the rigour of a British education but embrace the freedoms offered by an international setting. A commitment to the wider life of the school, and our enrichment programme, is an expectation of the job.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and dedicated educator with a Bachelor's degree and QTS (or international equivalent). You bring significant experience in primary teaching and have the resilience and flexibility to thrive in a fast-paced, start-up school environment. You are a self-starter who works well independently and as part of a team, with strong communication skills and a growth mindset.

EAL experience is desirable.

All positions are offered with attractive packages including competitive salaries, places for staff children in BSB, and other local benefits.

Final date to receive applications: 10 am (Spanish time), Friday 24th July 2026. Early applications are encouraged, we reserve the right to interview and appoint prior to closing date for the right applicant.
