Marine Parade, Singapore The Ritual Collective Full time $20,000 - $45,000 per year

Help build the preschool we all wished existed.

Amber is a next-generation preschool in Katong blending inquiry-based, Reggio-inspired practice with a mind, body and soul approach. We are assembling our founding team of Assistant and Preschool Teachers (English and Chinese) to shape the spaces, routines and culture from day one.

Why you'll love it: protected non-contact time, real coaching & PD, beautiful calm classrooms, and a team that values inclusion as daily practice—not a poster.

Start: Oct/Nov 2025 (pre-opening training)

What you'll do

  • Support/lead an English-medium class using inquiry-based, child-led practices.
  • Plan and run learning invitations; nurture emergent literacy/phonics within a mind, body and soul approach.
  • Create safe, calm spaces; differentiate for diverse needs; support gentle transitions at drop-off.
  • Observe, document and assess learning; prepare concise updates/portfolios for families.
  • Partner with parents (daily comms, conferences) and collaborate closely with the team.
  • Safeguard every child's wellbeing; maintain ECDA ratios and centre SOPs.
  • Contribute to pre-opening set-up and classroom environment build-out.

Additional expectations by level

Preschool Teacher (English/Chinese)

  • Lead curriculum planning & classroom routines; coach assistants.
  • Coordinate assessments, documentation quality and parent conferences.
  • Drive inclusion practices and behaviour guidance consistent with school values.

Assistant Preschool Teacher (English)

  • Co-facilitate lessons; prepare materials and learning corners.
  • Support documentation, classroom care routines, and transitions.
  • Provide targeted support to children under teacher's guidance.

What you'll bring

  • ECDA-recognised Early Childhood qualification:
  • Assistant: L1 (ACEY/HCIC or equivalent). Candidates completing L1 may be considered.
  • Teacher: L2 (Diploma in ECE/recognised equivalent).
  • Strong spoken and written English/Chinese; warm presence and solid classroom management.
  • Experience or interest in Reggio/inquiry and inclusive, strength-based practices.
  • Current Child First Aid and ability to clear background/reference checks (or willingness to obtain).

Nice to have

  • Training in phonics/early literacy (e.g., Jolly Phonics or equivalent).
  • Experience supporting neurodivergent learners in mainstream settings.
  • A small portfolio of documentation (learning stories/provocations).

What we offer

  • Competitive salary (commensurate with role: Assistant / Teacher) + performance bonus.
  • Annual Wellness Leave Day (no question asked)
  • Protected non-contact time for planning & documentation.
  • Paid professional development (Reggio/inquiry, inclusion) + structured coaching.
  • Wellness benefits and family-friendly leave policies.
  • Beautiful, thoughtfully designed environment in Katong; values-aligned team.

Schedule

Full-time, weekday school hours with occasional Open House/events (time-off in lieu).
