North London Collegiate School (Singapore) opened in August 2020 and offers an academically ambitious education in keeping with the aspirational ethos of NLCS (UK).

The school is purpose-built, boasting impressive state-of-the-art facilities.


We are looking for an enthusiastic, highly qualified and committed Junior School Librarian, with an outstanding track record of success, from August 2023.

This is a unique opportunity to join a leading international school as it enters an exciting new phase of development.

The successful appointee will oversee the Junior School library provision, reporting to the Director of Libraries and the Head of Junior School.

All members of staff are expected to be involved in pastoral care within the school community, usually in the role of form tutor, and also to contribute actively to the extra-curricular life of the School.


THE ETHOS


The ethos of NLCS (Singapore) echoes that of NLCS (UK) - every effort is made to recreate the ethos of the UK 'parent' school whilst taking into account and remaining sensitive to the local culture and context.


The School aims to provide a first-rate ambitious academic education for every child, which inspires a lifelong love of learning and gives the knowledge, attitudes and confidence to flourish.


THE CURRICULUM


The curriculum reflects the academic ambition and aspirations of NLCS (UK), and schemes of work will broadly reflect the curriculum of NLCS (UK).

This is supported by an extensive co-curricular programme of Sport, Music, Drama and other activities, which closely reflects that at NLCS (UK), and are provided to enrich and broaden the education offered, developing the talents and confidence of students.


NLCS (UK)


North London Collegiate School (UK) was founded in 1850 by Frances Mary Buss; she aimed to offer an academically ambitious education to girls, similar to that available to their brothers.

Exam results regularly top the UK league tables, and the School has repeatedly outperformed other prestigious schools regarding Oxbridge success rates.
