The Faculty and Staff of AISCT
The outstanding staff of the American International School of Cape Town is comprised of dedicated teachers and individuals from the U.S., Canada, England, South Africa, and other countries. Most have taught internationally or have travelled extensively and have interests in an international focus of education. As enrolments increase, more teachers will be hired to honor the philosophy of small classes.
