Ready to Revolutionize Education and Spark Young Minds?
Are you a teacher who believes every student deserves a chance to shine, especially when the traditional mainstream path hasn't worked for them? Do you dream of an educational environment where "one size fits all" is a forgotten phrase, and learning is as unique as each student? Then you might just be the superhero we're looking for!
Jabiru Community College (JCC) in Zillmere, North Brisbane, isn't your average school. We're a vibrant, small senior secondary special assistance school that champions around 90 incredible young people in Years 10-12. These are students who have disconnected from mainstream education, and we're here to offer them a fresh start. Our secret sauce? Highly individualized learning where every student crafts their own timetable and dives into learning in ways that truly light them up.
We're on an exciting journey to embrace the Big Picture Learning model, and we need passionate educators to help us make it happen. Imagine: you'll be guiding a small class of around 17 students, with the fantastic support of a youth worker, empowering them to explore their unique learning journeys. We hold high expectations for every single student, because we know they're capable of amazing things.
Who You Are:
- A cheerleader for young people: You genuinely love helping students connect with learning and crush their goals.
- A collaborative wizard: You thrive in a team setting, eager to brainstorm and build even better educational experiences for all our students, including our incredible First Nations and Queer students.
- An innovator at heart: You're excited by a different learning model, one that helps young people truly flourish and become their best selves.
- A diversity champion: You celebrate the rich tapestry of backgrounds, abilities and identities our students bring to the table.
- A registered Queensland teacher (or soon to be!): Whether you're QCT registered or able to jump through the hoops to become registered, we want to hear from you! New graduates, don't be shy – you're absolutely welcome!
While an understanding of the Big Picture Learning model is a bonus, it's definitely not a deal-breaker. What matters most is your passion and commitment!
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are strongly encouraged to apply – your unique perspectives and experiences are invaluable to our community.
