The new school build is expected to be open in Term 1, 2027 with Year 7, 8 and 9 students, and an additional year group will be added annually. The school serves a diverse and vibrant student body of 240 enrolment, including 13 Aboriginal students and 56% from a language background other than English. The first HSC cohort will be 2030, and it is anticipated that a supported learning unit will be at the school when the school moves to the permanent site. The permanent site is designed to serve the dramatically growing number of local families in the area and will cater for 1000 students in stage one with an average year group of 165 students.

• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, and the ability to work with teachers across KLAs on innovative learning and assessment.

An unconditional full approval to teach is a requirement.

Until the outcome of any such determination is confirmed, your salary offer will remain at Step 1 then be updated at a later date (typically a 1-2-week processing time post receipt of the form).
