Always looking for great class assistants

Our class assistants assist and actively collaborate in a positive partnership with teaching staff of the Pre-prep/Prep School, providing valuable support for teaching and learning by establishing a safe and stimulating environment that promotes pupil development academically, socially and personally.

St. Paul’s was founded in 1926 and was the first school in South America to receive accreditation from the UK government as a British School Oversees. Fully coeducational, with about 1,000 pupils, aged from 3 to 18, it is a school with history and tradition, but which embraces innovation, contemporary values and the latest in digital learning. We are a world-class school, and an international member of HMC and IAPS, and a member of COBIS and the LAHC. We are proud of our local, national and international reputation and we constantly strive to improve the opportunities for our pupils and staff. Our recent BSO inspection judged us as a leading British School overseas, and you can download the report from our website. Our exceptional facilities place teaching and learning at the heart of the school.

Even at times when we may not have an open position, we are always looking forward to connecting with talented and dedicated class assistants who would like to join our team. We will always be considering this talent pool when we open a new position. Please note besides this one, we continuously post specific vacancies here on our website which you are also welcome to apply for. If you feel you have the skills and the cultural fit to work at St Paul’s, we would love to receive your application. In your cover letter, please indicate which area you would be more interested in (Pre-Prep/ Early years – ages 3-6 or Prep – ages 6-11). Please, ensure that your entire application is in English.

The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share in this commitment. The offer of the role would be made subject to receipt of satisfactory references, proof of relevant qualifications, identification checks and other safeguarding checks (including Internet and Social Media profiles and exposure), an overseas check if appropriate and a pre-placement medical assessment. Proof of entitlement to work in Brazil is also required where necessary.

St Paul’s is committed to equality, diversity and inclusion. We recognise the value of diverse environments and strive to promote a culture in which all pupils, staff and members of the school community are welcomed and supported to fulfil their potential, regardless of their background or personal characteristics. We oppose all forms of unlawful and unfair treatment, embarrassment, discrimination, bullying and harassment.
