More than a relief teaching role

Looking for casual teaching work where you can actually connect with students, feel supported by colleagues, and enjoy coming to work?
At Carinity Education, we're seeking passionate Casual Teachers to join our schools and help young people achieve their potential in a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment.
This isn't your typical relief teaching experience.

Why casual teachers love working at Carinity

• Small classes. Bigger impact.

One of the first things you'll notice at Carinity is our small class sizes.
Instead of trying to manage a large classroom and learn dozens of student names in a single day, you'll have the opportunity to quickly get to know your students, understand their individual needs, and build meaningful connections that help them feel valued, respected and capable of success.
For many teachers, it's a refreshing reminder of why they entered the profession in the first place.

• Supported teaching, every day

Unlike many schools, every classroom at Carinity includes a dedicated Youth Worker.
That means from the moment you walk into class, you'll have support from someone who already knows the students, understands the daily routines, and has established trusted relationships with the young people in their care.
They'll help guide the rhythm of the lesson, support student engagement, and provide the consistency that is often missing in traditional relief teaching roles.
Together, our teams help students feel known, supported and ready to learn, so you can focus on what you do best: teaching.

• A team that welcomes you from Day One

As a smaller school community, you'll quickly get to know your colleagues and become part of the team.
Our staff are approachable, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping casual teachers feel confident and welcomed from the moment they arrive on campus. Whether it's your first day or your 50th, you'll never feel like you're "just the relief teacher."

• Bring the fun back to teaching

Teaching should be enjoyable.At Carinity, our schools regularly celebrate theme days, special events, student activities, and community initiatives that create a vibrant and positive school culture. As a Casual Teacher, you'll have plenty of opportunities to join in, build relationships, and enjoy being part of the school community.
