Considering your next leadership role?
Last year alone, 721 new international schools opened overseas. There are already more than 3,200 British international schools overseas - more than the number of independent schools in the UK - and they include some of the finest in the world.
Would you like to lead one?
As the appetite for high quality British education grows, so does the search for excellent school leaders. In the right place, this can be an exciting professional challenge and an enriching personal opportunity. With strong links and excellent CPD now available overseas, working abroad can be an important part of a successful career. It is simply the greatest area of growth in British education, and COBIS represents the best.
