Springforth International School was founded in June 2006 by two American working mothers who recognized the need for quality, affordable and international standard nursery and pre-school services in the large and multi-cultural community of East Legon. Springforth has experienced significant growth, moving from a single School building to an enclosed two-building campus. SFIS now offers Creché through Primary School education for children from nursery age of three months to class six (11 years). We also offer a full range of extra curricular activities.
Springforth International School is seeking a dynamic, energetic and creative English teacher who can lead and teach to a multi-cultural group of children, in a Christian setting.
