Join Foundation Principal Peter Edwards, in establishing San Damiano College as an innovative and vibrant learning community where the values of Community, Respect, Resilience and Service are lived out every day in everything that we do.
 

We are seeking dynamic, flexible, and innovative thinking professionals who are suitably qualified and wish to work in an exciting, innovative, and rewarding environment. An ability and keenness to teach across multiple subject areas will be highly regarded.

We also have part time opportunities available for Support Teacher: Inclusive Education (ST:IE) and Teacher/Librarian, with a possible full-time position by combining roles with other subject areas.

• Pastoral Leader

 • Program Leader – Administration (Daily Organisation, Testing, Data)
 • Curriculum Leader - one position encompassing all subject areas
 

Successful candidates will be flexible and forward thinking in their approach to modern classrooms, and fully conversant with current best practice in learning and teaching.
 

For BCE employees, this is demonstrated practice and understanding of the Effective and Expected Practices of the BCE Model of Pedagogy.

As the first Catholic secondary college in the community of Yarrabilba, San Damiano College is perfectly placed between Brisbane’s CBD and the Gold Coast. Yarrabilba, as a master planned community in Logan - home to 45,000 residents on completion, is a vibrant growing community with a planned educational precinct within which San Damiano College is located.
 

The beautiful architecture of the college will cement San Damiano as a visibly Catholic college within the community and will complement St Clare’s Primary School located just 800 metres away. With adjacent council ovals and the college’s own oval, the school is well resourced with sporting facilities.
 

Steady population growth in the region underpins BCE’s plans to open the college in 2021 commencing with Year 7, and will grow one year level each year until Year 12. It is envisioned that San Damiano College will be a 5-stream school catering for 1100 students.
