Job description

Glenaeon is an independent Steiner school offering a holistic curriculum from Pre-School to Year 12 that meets and enriches the NSW syllabus requirements.

Our educational philosophy and practice was developed by and evolves out of the work of Rudolf Steiner. Our approach to learning encourages expansive thinking, development of the living spirit and profound connection to the wisdom of the past, realities of the present and possibilities of future.

As the first Steiner School in Australia, Glenaeon has a fine heritage of pioneering work in innovative education dating back to our origins in 1957. We now educate up to 500 students from Preschool to Year 12 across three campuses at Castlecrag, Middle Cove and Willoughby on Sydney's Lower North Shore.

As part of the Student Support Services Team, you will work closely with teachers and students in classrooms and in small group settings to enhance the holistic development and educational progress of students with identified learning needs and disabilities. The key focus of this role is the delivery of academic support to students, including working with Individual Education Plans, preparation of teaching aids and support materials, and occasional administrative/record keeping work. Experience working with high school students is preferred, however this role may work with classes 1-12, as required, to meet student needs.
