Job description

Our diverse, multicultural and growing school is set in the heart of Onehunga. We are seeking a highly effective, passionate and genuinely caring educator to join our community of learners in 2027.

This full-time role will involve a combination of

• days released as our learning support leader (similar to SENCO) and working with groups to support learning
• 1 to 2 days a week releasing teachers for leadership and CRT time.

The successful applicant will work with a learning support coordinator (LSC), and be supported by one of our deputy principals.

Our staff work collaboratively in learning communities to provide the best possible learning experiences for our ākonga through our ‘EPIC’ approach to learning: Emotional environment, Physical environment and Intellectually Challenging environments.

The majority of our school work and learn within an architectural award winning new building, with just one learning community in existing classrooms.

2027 will be the fourth year of our whole school approach to structured literacy with ongoing professional learning supported by an external facilitator.

As a growing school we offer opportunities for future professional growth and leadership.

We would love to hear from you if you:

• can build strong responsive relationships with children and their whānau
• have sound understanding of the NZ Curriculum and high expectations for all ākonga
• are excited about working collaboratively with your colleagues in a learning community
• have a great sense of humour and love to learn.
