Administrative Assistant and Receptionist
職位亮點
職位描述
1. Introduction
Saint Too Bloom Academy (https://secondary.bloom.edu.hk/) is a new secondary school focused on innovation and entrepreneurship education. Designed from the ground up by passionate educators, engineers, and entrepreneurs, we aim to establish ourselves as one of the leading K-12 institutions in Hong Kong, the China Greater Bay Area (GBA), and Asia. While the world faces many ongoing challenges, we are excited at the prospect of reimagining what education could be – especially within our Chinese context – and we invite you to join us in our efforts to innovate to prepare students for the challenges that lie ahead.
After the successful opening of our primary school, Bloom KKCA Academy (www.bloom.edu.hk) in 2021, we look forward to the opening of our secondary program in August 2024. In preparation, we have been running pilot programs since 2018, which have served as incubation spaces for our school design and integrating innovation in our curriculum and unique programs. We have been preparing our senior cohorts for their A Levels and IGCSEs, while our junior cohorts are following our school-based and Key Stage 3 curriculum.
We are seeking qualified and experienced teachers to join the effort to launch the new secondary program in August 2024. Because founding teachers have a strong effect on the development of school culture, we will be placing a high premium on individuals who possess the following characteristics:
Courageous We are designing for the unknown. We do not seek failure, nor do we fear it.
Energetic Starting a school is exciting and challenging. It requires a lot of stamina and hard work.
Optimistic We must aim to inspire our students and one another.
Kind Teachers, students, and parents are on the same team. Teams flourish when members treat one another with dignity.
Creative Education has many problems, which we are trying to solve. We need problem-solvers to help and implement our vision.
Open-Minded Those who can park aside educational assumptions aside will be able to contribute more to our vision, innovation, and culture.
Adaptable Our design and implementation cycles are short. A nimble and evolving pedagogy will be necessary.
Patient Good schools take years to build.
All trends point to a future in which AI will replace many current jobs, and a future in which humans may become liberated to pursue their creative dreams. This requires us to begin moving away from a teacher-led, exam-based, subject-siloed secondary curriculum that merely produces demonstrations of knowledge mastery. We believe that education has to change now in order to prepare our young people for a vastly different world of higher education and work than that which we are currently familiar with.
If you are similarly animated by the necessity for change, while also building on the best of what we already have in education, we encourage you to apply.
