SCJ International Service

Choosing to work overseas can be a daunting but exciting decision. The schools that SCJ Consulting deals with are predominantly British International Schools, which means that they follow the National Curriculum. Most of the schools will do the IGCSE and then either AS and A2's or the IB programme.

The locations that SCJ Consulting recruits for include:

• Europe
• The Middle East
• The Far East and Asia
• South America
• Africa

Living and working abroad is going to be very different to living and working in the UK, when making your decision about where to go you need to consider the main differences such as culture, traditions, religion, expectations and general way of life.

How you are paid and the package you get when you work abroad is also different to the UK. Packages will vary depending on school and location, however most packages will include:

• 1-2 year contracts
• Return flights
• Good Salaries (in The Middle East this is tax free)
• Accommodation or Accommodation allowances
• Medical cover or allowance
• Relocation allowances
• Gratuity
