What we look for in a teacher at Stonehill?
Working at Stonehill International School is an exciting opportunity for any educator genuinely interested in international education, excited about progressive approaches to pedagogy, and committed to contributing to a broad range of curriculum opportunities for students to be successful in.
Stonehill prides itself on being the most ‘international’ of the various schools in Bangalore, not just in terms of student and faculty diversity, but also in our focus on developing ‘Global Citizens’ in our community. Our teachers play a key role in this endeavour. They develop units of inquiry that encourage students to engage with key global issues, organise opportunities for students to interact with the local community, and promote multilingualism and a strong understanding of the local culture and languages. Our teachers understand that ‘international’ doesn’t mean ‘western’, and they help students develop a healthy appreciation of both their own cultures and those of others around the world.
Our teachers are also firm believers in the value of a genuine ‘IB education’. We don’t just pay lip service to the expectations of the IB programmes; instead, we live and breathe the IB philosophy in everything we do. Our teachers create learning experiences for students that develop collaboration, communication and problem solving, and there is a strong emphasis on reflection, information literacy and transferable skills and conceptual understanding.
Finally, our teachers are all committed to our broad-based curriculum and share our belief in the importance of diverse paths to success for all students. The faculty run a range of after-school activities, coach sports teams, put on drama and music productions, engage in community service work, create art exhibitions, run technology clubs and workshops, and participate in all school activities throughout the year. Yes, it’s exhausting, but it’s also highly rewarding to see our students and teachers thriving in such a range of pursuits
So if the four paragraphs above describe you and your approach to working in schools, please get in touch. We’d love to hear from you.

Stonehill International School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. The school will reserve the right to conduct background screening, and make this explicitly clear to employees, at any time after employment has begun – and will do so periodically. It should also be made clear to all applicants that any misrepresentation, falsification, or material omissions in the information provided by the applicant, whenever discovered, may result in disqualification from, or termination of, employment within the school.
Aligned with the recommendations of the International Task Force on Child Protection, we hold ourselves to a high standard of effective recruiting practices with specific attention to child protection.
Teachers have to make education a lifelong journey of discovery and achievement for themselves, before they can inspire the same in their students. At Stonehill, we strive to instil the love of learning in our students and our teachers. The school is committed to helping teachers embody and encourage the application of the IB Learner Profile in every situation – a set of attitudes and behaviours that the IB continuum of education fosters in every learner. In this respect, among many others, an IB teacher is a different kind of educator. We invest significantly in teacher training, enabling our faculty to participate in workshops and conferences with internal and external IB trainers. This emphasis on professional development results in our ability to bring the best of an IB education to not just our students, but also our teachers.
