Job description

Edmund Rice Education Australia – Rockhampton QLD

Teacher – BlendED Queensland (Rockhampton)

About us

EREA BlendED National is a network of registered secondary schools, offering a dual engagement model of education. EREA BlendED National is an initiative of Edmund Rice Education Australia (EREA), with a growing footprint across Australia.

We exist for young people experiencing school can't, wanting to learn but currently unable to manage a traditional classroom for a range of complex reasons, which may include trauma, anxiety, disability, bullying, or other barriers to engagement.

Our dual engagement model combines teacher-led virtual face-to-face learning, regular in-person gatherings, and ongoing wellbeing support. Learning is guided by Individual Learning Plans (ILPs) developed alongside young people and their families. Through strengths-based, neuroaffirming and trauma-informed practice, we create an inclusive and empowering environment where young people can reconnect with education and thrive academically, socially and emotionally.

Our young people come from diverse backgrounds and may experience complex educational, social, developmental, environmental, psychological, health or legal barriers to learning. We recognise that each young person's journey is unique and work from a strengths-based, neuroaffirming and trauma-informed framework that prioritises connection, participation and individual growth.

Our Values

EREA BlendED National operates under four key principles that guide our daily interactions and community culture:

Known as Operation by Principles (OBP), this framework provides a shared foundation for young people, families and staff, ensuring relationships and learning are grounded in mutual understanding, accountability and unconditional positive regard.

Our Team

EREA BlendED National is expanding, with successful schools now established in Tasmania and Queensland. As we continue our growth, we are preparing to commence in New South Wales from Term 1 2027, further extending our reach across Australia.

We are building a dynamic, nationally connected team including Principals, Program Directors, Teachers, Wellbeing Workers, and Learning Support Officers across each state. Together, this team delivers innovative online education to young people who require alternative and supportive learning pathways.

The Role

Working collaboratively with fellow Teachers and multidisciplinary staff, the Teacher contributes to creating a positive and effective educational environment.
