I'm a primary teacher with a non teaching spouse and a small child. While most intl schools prefer to hire singles or couples with no children (or a teaching couple with children) there still are schools that will hire those like me. If you know of such schools can you please post their names?
Thanks
schools that hire teachers with dependants

depends
There are numerous schools that will hire educators with non-teaching dependents, however, they are usually for positions that are more difficult to fill and you must have excellent credentials (this is for the quality schools).
Now for the lower paying usually lower-quality schools, you have a much better chance of being considered for a position, however, you will thus be making a low salary with minimum benefits. You need to ask yourself if it is "worth it" to work in such a place. Good luck!

I'm a teacher with a non teaching spouse and a young daughter. I was asking this same question not so long ago. As gets debated endlessly on this forum, it's tough to say what equals quality, what's a good school, what's a bad school, etc. To each his own.
We leave in August for a school in Mexico. The pay certainly doesn't match up with some of the schools elsewhere, but the insurance package covers my whole family, housing/utilities are paid, flights, and in all my dealings with the school, they have been extremely friendly and professional. We are very excited for this new adventure! There are opportunities out there for sure.
