International School Jobs in France

Teaching Jobs in France International Schools

Most of the international schools in France are located in large urban centres such as Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Toulouse, Bordeaux, Lille and Nice. There are fewer international teaching jobs in France for foreigners to be found in smaller towns and rural areas, but a few of these are beginning to emerge. Whilst many international schools offer full K-12 provision, some specialise in early years, primary or secondary education. Primary teaching jobs in France are among the most commonly advertised. Most international schools in France are accredited and deliver an internationally recognised curriculum such as the International Baccalaureate, US Common Core/AERO, or the British curriculum. Teachers of most grades and subjects should be able to find teaching jobs in France international schools.

How to Find Teaching Jobs in France International Schools

Teaching Jobs in France International Schools

International school jobs in France adhere to the Western academic calendar, with teaching from September to June or July. There will often be two intakes for new hires, one in September and one in January. The hiring process for teaching jobs in France for foreigners will normally start towards the end of the previous year, from around October onward. It is important to note that not all vacancies are open to expats – management and support roles are most often filled locally. The most commonly posted opportunities for foreigners teaching abroad in France include early years, primary, and secondary teaching openings, principal and coordinator positions, SEN and learning support teachers, as well school counsellor and teacher librarian vacancies. English is the language of instruction in most international schools in France. However some schools are bilingual. A teacher’s licence, QTS or similar is normally required for teaching jobs in France international schools.

Teaching Salaries in France International Schools

france teaching jobs

Teaching in an international school offers educators a unique opportunity to work in diverse and multicultural environments. With France being home to a number of renowned international schools, it’s worth exploring the topic of teaching salaries in these institutions. While salaries can vary based on factors such as experience, qualifications, and school location, let’s delve into some examples to shed light on the earning potential for teachers in France’s international schools.

For example, The International School of Paris, located in the heart of the French capital, offers competitive salaries to its faculty members. Depending on qualifications and experience, teachers can expect a starting salary of around €40,000 to €60,000 per year. The International School of Nice, situated on the French Riviera, is known for its attractive teaching packages. Salaries for teachers with a Bachelor’s degree and limited experience range from €30,000 to €45,000 per annum, while those with advanced degrees and extensive experience can earn up to €70,000 or more. Another example is The International School of Toulouse, located in the vibrant city of Toulouse, which provides a favorable compensation package for its teaching staff. Salaries typically range from €35,000 to €55,000 per year, depending on qualifications and experience.

It’s important to note that in addition to base salaries, international schools in France often offer various benefits such as accommodation allowances, health insurance, professional development opportunities, and retirement plans. These perks contribute to the overall attractiveness of teaching positions in these schools.

Teaching salaries in France’s international schools are generally competitive, taking into account factors like qualifications, experience, and school location. Examples such as the International School of Paris, International School of Nice, and International School of Toulouse demonstrate the range of earning potential for educators in these institutions. It’s worth considering the additional benefits offered by these schools when evaluating the overall compensation packages. As with any profession, it’s advisable for teachers to research and compare different schools to make informed decisions about their career paths.

  2. Hello Wishlist team! This is Gabriel Mihalache. I am a qualified class teacher and teacher of English. I have been working in Kuwait for 16 years in British schools using the British curriculum. This summer, I and my wife, a Montessori teacher, decided we would like to relocate to France starting next school year, 2020. It is quite early to start looking for jobs in international schools in France, but we are very certain and determined to leave Kuwait for France, and we want to start early.
    Before we start applying formally to any international schools in France, we’d like to get a good idea about a possible salary, family accommodation and other benefits usually offered by schools there. As my 13 years old son would be in the same school with me, I also wonder if I would get a discount on his school fees.
    I hope you’ll be able to answer my questions soon. If you need me to provide any other information, CV and degrees later, let me know please. My email address is: mcgabrielbv@gmail.com
    Respectfully yours,
    Gabriel

  36. I’m an MFL teacher in England looking to relocate to France. I was wondering what the prospects are in international schools for MFL teachers. Do they prefer natives? I teach Spanish and French and can also offer Italian (Spanish and Italian to A Level and French to GCSE). Would it be better to try to get a job as an English teacher? My degree is also in English Literature so I am qualified to teacher English GCSE and A Level. I’m looking for a job in Bordeaux or any other Southern big city.

  41. Hi,

    I have 20 years of experience as a theatre practitioner and would like to look for another new vacant position as a drama/theatre teacher in any distinguished organization for 2023-24.
    I have also experience working with IB students for their CAS projects and experience in PSHME. I’m seeking new ways to expand my educational career, and I’m excited to know that my professional training and expertise in my field of study correlate with your requirements and educational vision. I am also a visiting faculty member at Calicut University in Kerala and a research fellow at India’s Ministry of Culture. I am also pursuing TEFL /TESOL post-graduation from the Asian College of Teachers Bangalore which will help me to help ESL students through Drama lessons and the course will complete after 6 months.
    I’ve been honored to collaborate with internationally renowned theatre artists and theorists. I’ve directed several theatrical productions. I think theatre will help students’ imaginations, confidence, and concentration to explore their artistic vision, critical thinking, and beyond to enhance the multiple perspectives in life. My current organization has a six-month notice period.
