Primary School Teacher – Find your purpose, your community, your Territory

The Northern Territory Department of Education and Training is looking for passionate Primary Teachers to join our public schools – from vibrant urban centres to remote communities rich in culture. This is your opportunity to belong to a community, immerse yourself in new experiences, and see the real impact of your teaching every day.

About Us

We support over 34,000 students across 153 government schools in the Northern Territory. Our classrooms are as diverse as our landscapes, with over 14,000 Aboriginal students and nearly half of all students speaking a language other than English. From the tropical Top End to the red deserts of Central Australia, teaching here offers challenge, reward, and a sense of purpose that’s hard to find elsewhere.

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary : $92,215 – $131,349 (based on your experience)
  • 17.5% leave loading + 12 weeks of leave annually
  • Relocation assistance and remote living benefits
  • Salary packaging options and flexible working arrangements
  • Furnished housing and extra allowances for some remote roles
  • A fast‑tracked application process – hear from us within 48 hours of applying

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Deliver engaging lessons aligned with the Australian Curriculum
  • Create inclusive classrooms that support every child’s growth and wellbeing
  • Build positive relationships with students, families, and communities
  • Assess, track and report on student progress
  • Be part of a diverse learning environment with nearly half of NT students speaking a language other than English
  • Who We’re Looking For

    If you’re a qualified Primary Teacher (or finishing your degree soon), registered or eligible to register with the Teacher Registration Board NT we’d love to hear from you.

    Your Next Step

    Click Apply to join our Classroom Teacher Recruitment Pool. Once you apply, we’ll be in touch within 24–48 hours to discuss your preferences and connect you with roles across the Territory.
