The Busan Overseas Chinese Primary School posted a notice recruiting teachers for the 115th school year, setting out the subjects, eligibility and application procedure.

Recruitment at overseas Chinese schools weighs qualifications, language ability and residence status together, with staff to teach Chinese characters and the Chinese language especially important to secure.

Chinese schools in Korea have contended with both fluctuating enrolment and difficulties in staffing. Because the schools are small, a single teacher may cover several subjects.

The notice specifies the application window and the documents required. Selection typically follows a review of papers and an interview.

Recruitment notices are published on the school's website notice board, which also handles enquiries from applicants.

The school said the timetable for appointments would follow the academic calendar so that term-time operations are not disrupted.
