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 are three lists of schools – one for those that are confirmed for January 25-27, 2013 TORF and one for those that are anticipated but not confirmed for January 25-27, 2013 TORF (based on their attendance at TORF 2012). The confirmed list will be updated as more schools register and confirm their participation. Below is also a list of schools which have withdrawn.
