About Saint Too Bloom Academy
Saint Too Bloom Academy is a new secondary school in Hong Kong dedicated to innovation, entrepreneurship, and bilingual education. Designed by a team of passionate educators, engineers, and entrepreneurs, our mission is to prepare young people to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
Since the establishment of our sister school, Bloom KKCA Academy, in 2021, we have pioneered bilingual, interdisciplinary, and project-based learning, forming partnerships across education, business, and social innovation sectors. In 2024, we expanded to our secondary campus, offering Cambridge IGCSE and A-Level programs alongside a school-based Key Stage 3 curriculum. We have since launched two additional pathways—the HKDSE and a US-accredited project-based pathway—to serve diverse learners.
We are seeking qualified and experienced teachers to join the effort to develop our new secondary program launched in August 2024. Because founding teachers have a critical impact on the development of school culture, we will be placing a high premium on individuals who possess the following characteristics:
Courageous
We are designing for the unknown. We do not seek failure, nor do we fear it.
Energetic
Starting a school is exciting and challenging. It requires a lot of stamina and hard work.
Optimistic
We must aim to inspire our students and one another.
Kind
Teachers, students, and parents are on the same team. Teams flourish when members treat one another with dignity.
Creative
Education has many problems, which we are trying to solve. We need problem-solvers to help and implement our vision.
Open-Minded
Those who can set aside educational assumptions will be able to contribute more to our vision, innovation, and culture.
Adaptable
Our design and implementation cycles are short. A nimble and evolving pedagogy is necessary.
Patient
Good schools take years to build.
All trends point to a future in which AI will replace many current jobs, and a future in which humans may become liberated to pursue their creative dreams. This requires us to begin moving away from a teacher-led, exam-based, subject-siloed secondary curriculum that merely produces demonstrations of knowledge mastery. We believe that education has to change now in order to prepare our young people for a vastly different world of higher education and work than that which we are currently familiar with.
If you are similarly animated by the necessity for change, while also building on the best of what we already have in education, we encourage you to apply.
