Appointment Pool
Allanson Primary School (PS) are seeking to establish a pool of Teacher – Primary for appointments to permanent and fixed term, full-time and part-time vacancies which may arise during the 2021 school year. Appointments can be made from the pool at any time for commencements within the 2021 school year.
Suitable applicants will be highly motivated, innovative Primary Teachers who will have positive interpersonal qualities and are able to work collaboratively in a team environment. The learning environment created by the teacher will be challenging and caring, catering for the range of needs which will see all students achieving their potential. Applicants must be prepared to participate in whole school and phase planning as well as collaborative and curriculum teams. It is highly desirable that applicants possess a high level of collaborative practice to enable effective participation and engagement within the school.
Allanson PS has a long and colourful history and tradition as documented by Aileen Rusconi and Esther Saunders in the Publication, 'Our Little Bush School.'
The original Allanson School was established in 1913 to cater for children from families involved in the first coal mining and timber felling operations in this region. Allanson PS is best described as having 'a learning environment' where students are able to achieve at their optimum level and maximise learning opportunities.
Vacancies may arise during the life of this pool that require specialist qualifications (for example vacancies within Early Childhood Education). Only applicants, in the pool, possessing the required qualifications will be considered for appointment in these circumstances.
To be suitable for this role, you will need to demonstrate your competency against the following domains (that govern the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers):
- Professional knowledge;
- Professional practice; and
- Professional engagement.
Applications will be assessed against these domains. The business needs of the school may also be considered. It is therefore recommended that you consider all information contained in the advertisement and any other related information before applying for the vacancy.
Applicants currently completing the Department of Education Leap program (formerly known as the Switch program) can apply for vacancies using their current or Leap qualification – even if they have not completed the program at the time of applying. Applicants may be appointed to a vacancy based on the qualification being completed via the Leap program.
