Appointment Pool

Melville Primary School (PS) is seeking to establish a pool of effective, committed and enthusiastic Teachers (Pre-Primary to Year 6) for appointments to permanent and fixed term, full-time and part-time vacancies, which may arise during the 2020 and 2021 school years. Appointments can be made from the pool at any time for commencements up to the end of 2021.

Melville PS is committed to making a difference in the lives of our students. We are passionate about children achieving their potential academically, socially and emotionally.  We believe it is of vital importance to develop the whole child, therefore an understanding and application of wellbeing approaches is highly valued. Staff and students’ backgrounds, stories and talents are unique and valued, enhancing the culture at Melville PS.

We have passionate staff with excellent curriculum knowledge, who take a collaborative approach towards teaching and learning. Applicants will be required to implement a consistent approach to teaching the curriculum content while demonstrating reflective practices and valuing student voice, with the intention of ensuring maximum impact. Innovation is encouraged and individual teacher strengths are valued and developed to suit the needs of students.

An applied understanding of instructional strategies to engage learners in inquiry, higher order thinking and have a passion for inclusion of differences in a supportive and safe learning environment is essential. Catering for gifted and talented students, supporting critical and creative thinking, is a priority at MPS with applicants required to demonstrate an expertise in differentiating the curriculum.

Confident use of digital technology for all applicants and working knowledge of Talk for Write, Letters and Sounds for junior teachers will be advantageous.

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.

The Department is an equal opportunity employer and encourages people with disability, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and persons from culturally diverse backgrounds to apply.
