About the business
Sydney Montessori School is a specialist independent school located in the Sutherland Shire, in a wonderful spacious setting close to Gymea station. The school has been operating since 1981, and prides itself on offering an excellent Montessori education from birth to age 12. With increasing enrolments, the school opened a High School component in 2021 commencing with years 7 & 8. The first intakes are capped with very low numbers which the school will grow over subsequent years. Year 11 students will commence in 2025 and grow to Year 12 in 2026.

About the role
Science Teacher Full Time or Part permanent position available.
Ability to teach Year 7-12 Science, including an appropriate specialism in Years 11 & 12.
Willingness to teach Earth and Environmental Science, Physics or Chemistry is desirable.
As a new and growing school, the Sydney Montessori School (SMS) requires energetic and enthusiastic High School teachers for our secondary program. We have a full time and/or part-time position(s) for 2024. In particular, expertise in Science is required, however, the ability to teach in other subject areas in Years 7 -12 will be of assistance.

Commencement Date: ASAP
The successful candidate will be organised and hard-working and will have excellent interpersonal skills. They should be self-motivated and able to work independently, but also be a team-player.
A passion for science, both within and beyond the curriculum, is ideal. The ability to teach in other subject areas will be of assistance whilst we are in our initial start-up / growth phase.
We have the potential of a full time or a combination of part time roles if required.

The Environment
The school will build on the existing Montessori philosophy and as a candidate school for the International Baccalaureate, we will develop new courses to implement the IB Diploma program once we achieve authorisation.
The role involves teaching in our Secondary program, however, teachers may also deliver lessons as specialists to the upper Primary students if appropriate. Our school provides a wonderful Primary Montessori learning environment in which each child can grow to their full potential in all spheres of their development – social, intellectual, emotional, physical and spiritual in accordance with Montessori philosophy. This approach is being continued and extended in establishing our High School program and aligning the secondary program to the IB Diploma programs. There is an expectation that the successful applicant will participate fully in the life of the School, including its co-curricular and pastoral programs.
With small class sizes and new high school buildings opening early term 2, teachers have access to modern well resourced facilities.
General information about the School may be found on the School’s website at http://www.sms.nsw.edu.au


Teaching with Us
The role of the teacher includes preparation of the indoor and outdoor environment, leading and monitoring the learning of each child, ensuring that the outcomes of the IBO and the NESA curriculum are achieved and communicating student development to parents. Working as a member of the educational team, teachers will develop and document courses and discuss and plan for individual children to ensure that we achieve the best outcomes for every child.
The position would suit an enthusiastic teacher who is committed to the development of each child as an individual, who can engage students in their learning and who is committed to work as part of a team to grow our new High School. Experience in, or knowledge of, the NSW HSC curriculum or the International Baccalaureate Programs and its pedagogical approach would be considered an advantage. It is not a mandated requirement if the staff member demonstrates a willingness to continue to learn and/or undertake training in the IB DP program.

Benefits and perks
A positive learning environment with very low teacher to student ratios. The opportunity to be part of the foundation establishment of a new High School. We have wonderful parents and students and a genuinely supportive community.

Skills and experience
The position(s) would suit an enthusiastic person currently familiar with middle years teaching approaches, the NESA curriculum, and an understanding of the Montessori and most importantly the International Baccalaureate MYP /Diploma / Career-related Programs.
We expect to employ enthusiastic teachers who are committed to the development of each child as an individual, who can engage students in their learning and who are committed to work as part of a team to grow our new High School.
Experience in, or knowledge of, the NSW (NESSA) curriculum and syllabuses, the Montessori philosophy and/or the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Program / Diploma Program and its pedagogical approach would be considered an advantage. Montessori and IB experience is not a mandated requirement if the staff member demonstrates a willingness to continue to learn and/or undertake training in the IB MYP program.
Whilst the initial appointments will work across Years 7-10 the ability to demonstrate specialist subject teaching knowledge and breadth of subjects to Year 12 may be an advantage as these programs will be introduced in 2024/25
Teachers must be currently registered or eligible for NESA registration as a teacher in NSW. A valid Working with Children Check clearance is required.
