Students from Sub-Saharan Africa are under-represented in the world’s best universities. In the US, a country hosting 900,000 foreign students, only 31,000 of them come from that region. In contrast, 100,000 come from India, a country with same population size and GDP per capita as Sub-Saharan Africa. This discrepancy stems from the inadequacy of traditional secondary school education on the continent and affordability of most international schools.
Enko Education aims to drastically enlarge the access to outstanding international secondary education in Africa, by building one of the largest networks of schools in the region. We designed an international secondary-school model relying on international curriculum such as IB and Cambridge, significantly more affordable than any other international secondary-school.
Enko Education is supported financially by LiquidAfrica, a financial advisory company promoting the development of the African continent, the French Development Agency, via Proparco, its branch supporting private sector, and I&P (Investor and Partner), a social impact fund focusing on Sub-Saharan Africa.
Our network today includes seven schools. Enko Nyamunda International School in Maputo, Mozambique, opened in January 2016. It has 130 students in Grades 8-13. Students are taught in English and prepare for Cambridge Checkpoint examinations in Grade 9, Cambridge IGCSE examinations in Grade 11 and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme examinations in Grade 13.
We are looking for an experienced and qualified teacher to join the team to take over teaching of Mathematics in Grades 8-13. This is a full-time post. Our salaries are modest in comparison with ‘traditional’ international schools, but compare favourably with other schools in Mozambique.
The teacher will report to the Head of School of Enko Nyamunda International School (Maputo, Mozambique)
