The Role
We are seeking teachers who pursue excellence in teaching, have high expectations, and who truly believe that all children can learn and be successful. You will ideally also be committed to putting students first in your decision-making and undertake the hard work that is inherent in adhering to a whole school approach. You will deliver motivating and quality educational programs, and believe that exemplary, evidence-based teaching practices lead to successful students and high standards of achievement.
They should consistently use evidence-based teaching and learning practices that prioritise the reflective use of data and embedded differentiation to support all students. Teachers at Yanchep Rise PS should adopt high impact teaching strategies and use ongoing formative assessment to provide feedback to students at the point of error, measure student progress, differentiate teaching and plan next steps in learning.
A displayed knowledge and understanding of our school vision and Business Plan is desirable. We have developed whole school approaches to student engagement through Positive Behaviour Support and an embedded application of our school values of Respect, Integrity, Safety, Excellence and Resilience. It is expected that staff joining our team will become RISERs. Applicants who have experience in effective use of Classroom Management Strategies and Trauma Informed Practices would be desirable.
Effective relationships and partnerships which promote positive outcomes for students are central to everything we do. Our school embraces the ethos of 'it takes a village to raise a child'. This ethos drives the thinking of staff and community members as they strive to create a learning environment that produces well rounded citizens on which to build the future of this community. We are seeking teachers with outstanding interpersonal and communication skills, which underpin professional and positive working relationships with students, staff, parents and the wider community. With effective interpersonal skills, we will work together to achieve the best educational outcomes for our students.
