Our Staff

A committed family of professionals

Pearl of Africa International Primary School has no entry policy and is open to students from a wide range of backgrounds, cultures, religions and abilities. It is therefor that we have an inclusive and international student community. To meet individual needs, classes are kept small with an overall teacher-student ratio of 1:8.

Pearl of Africa International Primary School has highly dedicated and qualified teaching staff of about 10 members from different backgrounds, cultures and religion. According to their qualifications, experiences and interests, teachers are assigned to classes, subjects, activities and individual students.

Professionalism starts immediately when working for the school, with an internal start up programme. Internal and external workshops, courses and training are organised to meet teachers’ needs.
