Teacher, $72,137 - $107,049 per annum (SEA GA 2019)

Can you inspire creativity in little ones?

Then this opportunity will be music to your ears!

Huntingdale Primary School (PS) is seeking a dedicated, creative and innovative Teacher of Music to join their friendly team.

The successful applicant will ideally provide a high quality and engaging, contemporary music education for students in Years 1 to 6. The successful applicant will facilitate the school choir's participation in local events, develop a small auditioned ensemble and assist teachers in undertaking musical performances at school assemblies and concerts. A music qualification is desirable for this role.

The successful teacher will liaise with the School of Instrumental Music to enable their programs to be delivered in the school. The successful applicant will engage a wide range of students in enthusiastic participation of the music program using their contemporary understanding of musical performance and education. It is highly desirable that the successful applicant can build positive relationships with a diverse school community and possess a proactive approach to behaviour management including the consistent use of low key classroom management strategies.

Huntingdale PS is a friendly forward thinking non-IPS school. A school that offers staff support and challenges to give students ultimate educational opportunities. The school has a neat blend of staff with extensive experience and a group of more recently graduated teachers. Being the only school in the suburb has resulted in a true sense of 'community' developing within the school, and the school as a focal point within the local community.

The school motto 'I Care' is the cornerstone of the school's processes and programs for child development and managing student behaviour, with a strong orientation to reinforcing and rewarding good behaviour.

This selection process will initially be used to fill the above vacancy. Applicants assessed as suitable during this selection process may be considered for other similar vacancies that occur throughout our school for up to 12 months following this initial appointment. This includes circumstances where this position becomes subsequently vacant should the successful applicant decline or vacate the advertised position. 

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.
