Appointments can be made from the pool at any time for commencements within the 2022 school year.
Manea SC is a dedicated Year 11 and 12 College delivering courses at both ATAR and general levels for students completing their final two years of schooling.
Applicants with successful experience in teaching ATAR and General English courses at senior school level are encouraged to apply. We are ideally looking for teachers with rigorous subject knowledge and experience in delivering courses. The capacity or experience in teaching Literature ATAR will be advantageous, as will the experience or capacity to teach other subject areas at senior school level.
At Manea SC, we are dedicated to selecting specialist staff with strong curriculum knowledge and relationship building skills to provide an educational journey for our students that enables their success in Years 11 and 12, whilst simultaneously preparing them for life as adults, with a strong focus on developing their enterprise skills and general capabilities.
Manea SC monitors and reports on the standard of student achievement, both academic and non-academic, staff performance and value adding. In addition, our staff are involved in established review processes and strategies to monitor quality teaching. This includes student surveys, (completed twice per year) and academic data analysis. All Manea SC staff participate in formal self-reflection meetings with the Principal twice per year.
We are strategically located between Edith Cowan University (ECU) South West Campus and South Regional TAFE (SRT), providing our students with the opportunity to combine their WA Certificate of Education (WACE) programs with nationally recognised certificate qualifications, and access to TAFE and university facilities across the Education Precinct.
At Manea SC we have a strong moral purpose to provide students with quality teaching and learning opportunities as well as life experiences that enable them to transition into the adult world. This is achieved through a learning environment that is specialised for young adults and built on the foundations of strong relationships, mutual trust, respect, support and individual accountability. The College operates under a young adult, work related environment where relationships are built using a first name basis. All students are regarded as, and interact with staff as young adults and have our trust and respect
All staff are expected to uphold the corporate image of Manea SC by wearing the staff uniform, adhering to the Department of Education code of conduct and participating in mentoring and other student support programs.
