We are seeking an experienced and creative High school Mathematics and Physics teacher with an interest in Steiner/Waldorf education to teach in the Titirangi Rudolf Steiner School Upper School, commencing at the start of Term 1 2027 (or earlier by arrangement).

This is an opportunity to take a significant role in a small, close-knit Steiner school, with responsibility for the mathematics programme across the Upper School and the majority of mathematics teaching (includes Statistics and Calculus). Ideally, the successful applicant will also be able to teach some of the Physics programme, or other subjects across the school - please indicate any additional subjects you are qualified and willing to teach.

Our ideal applicant will meet the needs of a diverse range of learners, foster a genuine love of learning in young people, cultivate a positive and healthy social dynamic within the class, and provide thoughtful pastoral care and guidance for students.

They will bring a commitment to experiential approaches to teaching and learning, a distinctive feature of our curriculum. Through hands-on, inquiry-based, and real-world experiences, they will engage students deeply, nurturing curiosity, creativity, and a sense of purpose in their learning.

We are seeking candidates who are interested in a full-time, permanent position and are able to make a long-term commitment to the school. We seek experienced Steiner/Waldorf teachers - or teachers eager to learn - to deepen the knowledge of our body of teachers and to contribute to the development of Steiner education in an independent environment.
