The School

At Treeby Primary School (PS) we are committed to celebrating the diversity of our community and upholding a deep commitment to the uniqueness of every child. Teachers at Treeby PS hold themselves accountable to high expectations and pride themselves on their differentiated research-proven approaches that align to whole school expectations. 

We firmly believe that every child can reach their full potential, when they are supported by adults who care for them, are connected to each other; and have a deep sense of belonging to our school and community.

We are resolute in the belief that if we hold our children accountable to the highest of standards, while providing them with academic and social support, they will rise to the challenge.

The Role

Suitable applicants will ideally be highly motivated and committed to students’ academic achievement and their social and emotional development, through the effective use of rigorous plan-teach-assess cycles. Ideally, applicants will display their ability to create an engaging and inclusive learning environment based on high expectations. They should use assessment data to continuously evaluate the effectiveness of teaching programs, set targets and plan for differentiated learning opportunities for all the students in their class. Utilising student-driven inquiry and their ability to build connections across the curriculum, teachers will ensure that every moment is utilised to drive student engagement and improvement.

Suitable applicants should display a deep commitment to developing positive and productive relationships with students, parents, and staff. They will embed a proactive and inclusive approach that includes individualised planning and the consistent application of low-key classroom management strategies, aligned to Positive Behaviour Support (PBS). Effective and regular communication, underpinned by respect and trust, is important at Treeby PS.  

At Treeby PS, our teachers work in an environment committed to self-reflection and continuous self-improvement. They should be an active member of a supportive team, maximising the learning opportunities for all students. They will also be committed to collaborating with their colleagues, including during DOTT (Duties other than teaching), to moderate judgements and support whole school priorities. Suitable applicants should be committed to undertaking the hard-work and collaboration inherent in delivering an engaging quality educational program, while building a positive whole school culture.
