Maidstone Intermediate New Zealand (nationwide)

Teacher

Be Aware: Not everybody would like this job. It is for people who have the WOW factor when it comes to work with and understanding of teenagers.

So perhaps you should first look at these questions:

• Do you prefer your workdays not to be boring?
• Do you have a passion to be part of educating teenagers who will the role players in a world that will look totally different than what we are used to
• Do you want to be part of a kura where there are many expectations but just as much fun and collaboration?

If your have answered yes to the above questions, you might want to go and have a peep at our website.

Teaching at an intermediate school can be challenging, but at the same time it can be hugely rewarding. This is the time of huge changes in the development of our tamariki. As kaiako our biggest gift to them is to believe in themselves. They need adults to role model integrity, passion, resilience and positive attitudes.

The ideal candidate will be somebody who has a balanced lifestyle, prepared to give their best and strive for excellence while accepting that working with young ones means that everything does not always work according to the plan. They will be enthusiastically involved in the kura, inside as well as outside the classroom. They will bring with them a passion for curriculum and a knowledge of behaviour management. And lastly they will bring a sense of humour and a willingness to work collaboratively.

We look forward to receiving your application.
