<h1>Recruitment</h1>

The Lycée français international Denis Diderot, the only school in Kenya accredited by the French Ministry of Education, is looking to recruit staff for AEFE secondment contracts or local contracts for teaching, education and administrative positions. Secondment contracts are aimed at teachers with tenure in the French education system.  As a reminder: the AEFE implements a policy of professional equality between men and women.

Most recruitment takes place between January and April, in preparation for the following school year. However, needs may arise during the course of the year.
