Year 2 Classroom Teacher

This unique Central Auckland Catholic school is looking for an enthusiastic and dedicated Year 2 teacher to join their team in a long term relief position, covering maternity leave, from September 2019. Whether you’re a returning Kiwi or an adventurous offshore trained primary teacher, here is your opportunity to work in a vibrant, welcoming, and inclusive school.

Our Lady of the Sacred Heart School, Epsom, has values which are based on the Mercy values of Truth, Justice, and Compassion. The school teaches a Religious Education Curriculum, which highlights the role of Parents, School, and Parish in a child’s education. All must work together collaboratively to foster and develop young minds. Students work with teachers to share information about their learning with family and friends.

The school has the vision to ignite in their children the passion for limitless learning. They believe that this should start with their teachers, who work collaboratively to focus on the needs of individual students. The school has a robust leadership team with strong direction, effective planning, and a clear vision for improving the outcomes of their children. This helps students to foster a sense of pride and confidence in themselves and in their school.

You'll be living in Central Auckland, close to the heart of the city. There's relaxed coastal living, green spaces, excellent nearby beaches, and a thriving inner-city-suburb shopping and restaurant experience. It won't be hard to see why Auckland is considered one of the most livable cities in the world!

You may be eligible for a $5000 overseas relocation grant from the Ministry of Education if you take up a teaching position in New Zealand. Now is a great time to come and teach in Aotearoa!

You don’t need to be a practising Catholic but would need to be respectful of the special character of this school, or be a teacher who has worked in a faith-based school previously. If you are a teacher who shares these strong core values and you see yourself fitting into the team, get in touch today!
