Luke Diaz

Athletic Director, Curriculum Coordinator for Outdoor Education, & PE Teacher, NationalHigh Jakarta School

I am an international Physical and Health Education teacher and sports leader with over 8 years of experience across large and small international schools. I am currently working at NationalHigh Jakarta School, having just started this academic year - leading Sports and Outdoor Education as well as teaching PE. Prior to moving to Jakarta, I spent 2 years at Nexus International School Singapore, where I taught MYP PHE and led the Sports Ambassadors (sports council) student leadership program. I worked at UWCSEA Dover as Head of High School Sport, managing a large co-curricular sports program with over 1300 high school students and multiple teams across each sport. I also served as Athletic Director and PHE teacher at Marymount International School in Rome, helping to grow participation and develop systems. Prior to teaching, I was a football academy manager and football coach, where I led player development programs, coached across age groups, and coordinated competitive events in Singapore as well as organising a range of international trips. I am passionate about creating high-energy, inclusive learning environments where students develop movement ability and build a range of essential values and behaviours such as confidence, leadership, and an overall love for movement.
