Kaiako Tau 7, Kura Auraki

As we require the successful candidates to be able to start immediately, applicants must have the current legal right to work in New Zealand. Regrettably, we are unable to consider applications that require visa sponsorship at this time.

Sir Edmund Hillary Collegiate Middle School is seeking two passionate, energetic, and dedicated teachers to join our Year 7 team for 2026. This is a fantastic opportunity to work in a vibrant, multicultural environment that truly values its community.

The successful candidates will be educators who prioritise learning-focused relationships and hold high expectations for all ākonga. We are looking for teachers who use evidence-based teaching strategies to ensure our Year 7 students are well-prepared, confident, and inspired as they transition into Year 8.

The ideal candidates will have:

• a strong understanding of the New Zealand Curriculum and effective pedagogical practices
• a collaborative spirit and the ability to work closely within a supportive team across our collegiate
• a commitment to culturally responsive practice and an appreciation for the diverse backgrounds of our Ōtara community
• the ability to embody our core values: whakaute (respect), whanaungatanga (relationships), and kounga (excellence).

We pride ourselves on creating a learning environment where both staff and students feel valued. These positions are ideally suited for beginning teachers, and we encourage you to apply.
