We’re looking for a passionate and dedicated Secondary Teacher to teach Humanities, with tertiary qualifications and registration (or eligibility) with the Queensland College of Teachers. The ability to teach Religious Education would be an advantage. This position is Full-Time, Fixed Term for the 2026 school year, commencing as soon as practicable and concluding 4 December 2026.

Your understanding of contemporary teaching practices, and your ability to adapt and support a diverse range of learners, will help every child feel included, valued, and confident.
In your classroom, you’ll spark curiosity and a love of learning by designing engaging lessons, setting clear expectations, and continually reflecting on your practice to keep improving. You’ll use a range of assessment tools to understand each student’s progress, celebrate their growth, and give meaningful feedback that helps them thrive.
Guided by Catholic values, you’ll embrace the school’s mission, prioritise student safety and wellbeing, and help create a welcoming, supportive environment where every learner feels they belong.
