WAREHOUSE MANAGER
THE BRIDGE OFFER
Roughly
2.7 billion people live on less than $2/day. In their communities,
there is a huge gap between the education offered and the needs of the
population. Too often the schools available to them fail. The quality
offered is poor, teachers are unresponsive and occasionally abusive, and
fees are expensive. Even “free” government schools can cost anywhere
between $2 and $12 per month after all of the additional fees (some
sanctioned, some not) are added up. 55% of families end up choosing
private schools instead, but then fear for the stability and
sustainability of their choice as many schools close after only a few
years of service. Both the government schools and the private schools
tend to lack well-conceived curriculum, student achievement data, and
the capacity to react to that data.
Families are actively searching for a better academic alternative.
Enter
Bridge International Academies. As of August 2017 Bridge operates more
than 500 academies, serving roughly 100,000 pupils in Kenya and Uganda,
Nigeria, Liberia and India.
Bridge utilizes a scripted-learning
education methodology coupled with 'big data' (all teachers have tablets
for instruction, assessment, and data-gathering) that allows us to make
curriculum a little better every day.
With plans to enroll ten
million students by 2025, Bridge International Academies offers a
tremendous opportunity to grow with one of the world’s most exciting,
ambitious, and socially conscious companies, with leadership roles
available across a number of competencies and geographies.
