Looking for a teaching role that truly supports you?

We're growing! In January 2027, Y Community School opens its doors to a brand-new junior campus for year 7-9 students, and we want you to help us build it.

About Y Community School

We are an independent school focused on re-engaging young people who have become disengaged in mainstream education, supporting them to build the skills and confidence to reach their goals and create meaningful futures.

Built on the pillars of wellbeing, academic growth and vocational opportunity, our Y program is founded on evidence, experience and a student led approach.
