We are seeking to establish a pool of Teacher - Primary for permanent and fixed term, full-time and part-time vacancies which may arise during the 2025 school year. Appointments may be offered at any time for vacancies that commence during this period.
Cannington Community College (CC) is a dynamic work and learning environment delivering responsive and inclusive education to a diverse community. The College is an urban Kindergarten to Year 10 school approximately 8 kilometres from the Perth CBD. Our College is unique!
Cannington CC is growing and undergoing significant renewal over the next few years, with the development of new pedagogies and new ways of working together. We are collaboratively developing a vision for the future of Cannington, and together with the City of Canning, Cannington Community Education Support Centre and Sevenoaks Senior College, we are engaging with the redevelopment of the inner-city area. Good things are happening.
So, naturally, Cannington CC is an exciting place to learn and work, and we invest in our people. We do this through an instructional coaching and capacity-building approach, with observation and feedback integral to our school improvement agenda. We have dedicated coaches who would love to help you grow.
