Participating Schools and Organisations
Most of the schools in attendance will be international schools. Such
schools are funded primarily through tuition fees, have English as the
primary language of instruction, and in many cases offer an American or
British curriculum, with the International Baccalaureate program also being
very common. A few of the schools attending the Queen's Recruiting Fair
follow an Ontario curriculum. Salaries and benefits, cost of living, and
composition of the teaching staff all vary widely. While some schools are
able to pay attractive salaries, most teachers accept contracts overseas
primarily for personal and professional enrichment. Typically about 80
schools from 40-50 countries participate, with approximately 700–800 teaching
and administrative positions available in total.
The participating schools have been screened on the basis of accreditation,
reputation, feedback from teachers, and visits by Queen's faculty and staff,
among other factors. In addition to protecting the interests of teachers
in this manner, we offer a continuing placement service for TORF candidates,
and a well organized event noted for its civility and cooperative atmosphere.
Below is a list of schools that are registered, as of December 18, 2008, for the TORF on the weekend of February 6-8, 2009. Changes to the list are possible.
