With a vision to educate the whole person – academically, spiritually, physically, socially and emotionally, and a strong sense of community and inclusivity, the College creates a vibrant learning community that values diversity.

Reporting to the Principal and a key member of the Leadership Team, the Head of Teaching and Learning develops, coordinates and monitors the learning programs for middle and senior years students and plays a significant role in the leadership of the College.  Key responsibilities include:

• consulting with students, parents and staff on curriculum and learning matters.

Applications are encouraged from contemporary and qualified secondary years educators with demonstrated success in developing and implementing curriculum combined with modelling and promoting effective teaching, learning and assessment practices.  The ideal candidate will be an inspiring, collaborative educator with highly developed leadership and interpersonal skills, energy, warmth, diplomacy and a genuine alignment with the College’s Lutheran values and educational philosophy.  This full time appointment contributes strongly to leadership while maintaining a small teaching allocation.

This is an outstanding opportunity to make a valuable contribution in supporting the learners of today to become the leaders of tomorrow within a growing and connected community.
