The Role
Do you possess excellent communication skills and are ready to take on new challenges?
Greenfields PS is seeking dedicated and passionate teachers who believe in success for all students.
The suitable applicants will ideally keep up to date with modern teaching practices, in particular explicit teaching and cooperative learning and use a variety of assessment tasks for students to experience success to accurately assess levels of student achievement. Being a lifelong learner is a key part of our school strategic planning and as the suitable applicants and leaders within our school, you should be committed to relevant professional learning to further your own, and others, development.
We believe that every child matters every day and ensure that students receive high quality education. Our staff provide fun and engaging lessons, as we want to foster a love of learning in our students. As part of your role you would be required to set goals with your students that are scaffolded and achievable. We are looking for a team player, who is collaborative, positive and enthusiastic about building our professional learning community.
Our students require a teacher who ideally is compassionate, caring and creates a safe and supportive learning environment. As a school we have developed our own behaviour matrix around a positive behaviour model, which we expect all of our students to follow. At Greenfields PS we have developed our own explicit teaching model, which forms part of our school Business Plan. We also use a number of programs, including; Spelling Mastery on top of regular classroom spelling programs, fluency pairs which complements our in-class reading programs and PRIME Maths.
