Humanities and Social Science & Economics Teacher – Australia

Humanities and Social Science & Economics Teacher (Full-Time)

An exciting opportunity has become available for a qualified Christian educator to join our growing College as we accommodate students and new courses of study at the beginning of 2024 in Perth, Western Australia.

If you are a vibrant educator who loves to assist and engage students in deep learning opportunities, we want to hear from you.

About Rehoboth

As the first Christian parent-governed school in Western Australia, we are pioneers of distinctly Christian education. Our rich heritage stretches back almost sixty years; we have learned a lot in that time and continually seek ways to improve and innovate.

Rehoboth exists to partner with families in their task of nurturing and educating their children. You will be joining a team that really believes in their mission to lead students to think and live for the glory of God in every aspect of their lives.

About the Position

A Secondary Teacher will have a strong understanding of the curriculum, assessment, standards, and reporting requirements defined by the School Curriculum and Standards Authority of Western Australia. You will also need to be committed to providing a Biblically integrated curriculum, with an enthusiasm for training children in a thoroughly Christian worldview in every learning area.

This is an ongoing position based at our Kenwick Campus for full or part-time Humanities and Social Science (HaSS) Teachers with experience in teaching lower Secondary HaSS. The ability or an interest in teaching Year 11 and 12 Economics would be desirable.

What You Need to Succeed

Apart from the necessary qualifications, we look for people who are the right fit for our culture. Rehoboth is a community of Christians – parents and staff alike – and we are all about supporting and encouraging each other in our spiritual walks and encouraging students to explore their faith and discover their God-given gifts.

Because of the deeply Christian nature of our College, we consider all staff to be role models to students, no matter what position they have. So, you will need to be able to demonstrate an impeccable Christian lifestyle.

To realise this vision of community, we take your active involvement in a local Protestant Christian church and your ability to articulate your personal Christian faith as evidence of this.

You will also need to be an exceptional communicator and have an outstanding ability to work collaboratively with staff and students. This is where your compassionate, pastoral heart will shine.

Here are the essential criteria for the position:

• you must be actively involved in a local Protestant Christian church and be able to demonstrate an exemplary Christian lifestyle;
• you must hold or obtain a Working with Children Check; and
• you must hold or obtain a Department of Education Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Check that is no more than three months old.

Steps to apply:

• head to our website and complete the Teaching Staff Application Form;
