Classroom teachers are provided a wide range of quality professional development and leadership opportunities. They are supported to be the best teacher they can be, both personally and professionally. We are part of Te Kāhui Ako o Taranaki Mohoao, which further strengthens professional learning opportunities for our teachers.

We are looking for someone who can positively complement our school culture. If you are solution-focused, have a great sense of humour, and a positive outlook, we want to hear from you. Applicants should also share what unique skills and talents they can offer our ākonga.
