But 80% of what we know about how the human mind learns has been discovered in just the last 20.&nbsp;</p> <p>At Westbourne International, we get that absurdity. And we’re changing the paradigm.</p> <p>We’re <i>not</i> looking for someone who ‘thinks outside the box’</p> <p>We’re looking for someone who thinks the whole notion of a box belongs to yesteryear, or to other people.</p> <p>If that sounds like&nbsp;you,&nbsp;read&nbsp;on.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>About Westbourne International</strong></p> <p>Westbourne International is reshaping what an elite school can be.</p> <p>With award-winning colleges in the UK, Singapore and Sydney, and further expansion already planned, our group is united by a single, powerful mission: to develop leaders of the future in STEM and Business careers on the global stage.&nbsp;</p> <p>We are a network of academically elite, globally connected colleges.

They prepare students brilliantly for the careers of the past. The world however is changing fast.&nbsp;</p> <p>Westbourne is fundamentally different.&nbsp;</p> <p>We are IB-only, co-educational, and exclusively focused on Business and STEM. We don’t operate like a traditional school, but more like a professional enterprise or new tech start up. Our students wear business attire, work in open-plan offices, and are treated as young professionals from day one. They collaborate on live projects with their peers in the UK and Singapore, and work in world class facilities such as the UTS Superlab, alongside industry and university partners. We tell every student on Day One: ‘<i>You are not at school anymore. Today is your first day at work</i>.”</p> <p>This is education for the future, designed to build the work ethic, mindset and professional behaviours that define success in the modern world.&nbsp;</p> <p>Launched in 2021, Westbourne College Sydney has rapidly established itself as one of Australia’s top academic schools. We are now entering our next stage of growth and seeking a teacher ready to inspire the next generation of STEM leaders.</p> <p><strong>About the Role</strong></p> <p>We’re looking for an exceptional Chemistry and Biology teacher to join our Sydney team.
