Suitable for beginning teachers

We are looking for 3 highly motivated, resilient and passionate teachers to work in either our junior, middle or senior school for 2027.

Successful schools are built on positive relationships and quality teachers and we are looking for someone who is motivated and knows the qualities needed to work in a New Zealand School, because it is the right place for them; someone who knows Kauri Flats, our vision and what this means - not just for a job in NZ with an AI-written application.

The key attributes of Kauri Flats teachers:

• Excellent English language skills (both spoken and written) to teach literacy and the key foundations of learning
• Have a great sense of humour
• Excellent relationship builder with both kids, adults and whaanau
• A deep knowledge of the Te Maataiaho (New Zealand Curriculum)
• Culturally responsive
• Understand the future demands of 21st-century education
• Competent with technology (not just able to use Google apps).
• Forward, outside-the-box thinker
• Solutions based
• Go the extra mile for our learners - because they're worth it!
• Do not have a fixed mindset of how things should be done
