There may be a requirement to start on 29 or 30 January to support new staff induction. The fixed term is to cover a staff leave of absence from the English Department for the duration of the 2026 academic year.

The successful candidate will join an established and well-resourced area. Applicants should be willing to be involved in the co-curricular and mentor programmes of the College.

• The arts

The successful candidate will have the ability to teach for Y9–12 English (NCEA Levels 2 and 3) and the competence to teach other subjects. Please advise clearly in your application as to the nature of these subjects. The academic qualifications and confidence required to teach English to Scholarship level will be a likely requirement.

We offer excellent working conditions in an attractive environment. Remuneration is above state levels (as is the KiwiSaver employer contribution), reflecting the nature of working in an independent school.
