Bishop's College School

Bishop's College School is a boarding and day school in Sherbrooke, Quebec, serving about 250 students in grades 7 through 12. The school sits between Montreal and the Eastern Townships, giving faculty access to both urban culture and outdoor recreation. Built on Episcopal values, Bishop's College School combines residential and commuting students in one learning community, which shapes how the school operates and how teachers work.

The mixed model creates a distinctive teaching life here. Residential faculty supervise dormitories during evenings and weekends, but day faculty teach classes without overnight duties. Both groups advise students, coach sports, and lead clubs. This flexibility means you can design your own balance between classroom teaching and extracurricular involvement. The bilingual French-English curriculum is central to the school's identity. Teachers fluent in French—or willing to develop that skill—find clear career value in a bilingual environment where both languages carry equal weight in daily instruction and community life.

Bishop's College School hires across English, mathematics, sciences, humanities, French, and arts. Athletic coaching and residential supervisor roles open regularly. Openings appear most often before the fall term begins, with occasional mid-year searches. Because the school enrolls 250 students rather than 500 or 1,000, individual faculty shape curriculum and culture in visible ways. You influence what gets taught and how the community develops.

Compensation and benefits are competitive within Canadian independent schools. On-campus housing is typically available for boarding staff, which reduces living costs significantly in the Sherbrooke region. The school's commitment to wellness, athletics, creativity, and service means faculty see those values embedded in daily work, not just in mission statements.
