Flexible Teacher

Tirohia School · Waikato

Part-time (0.4 FTTE)Fixed-term (28 Jan to 16 Dec 2027)

About the role

0.4 FTTE (with potential for more!)

We're on the hunt for a flexible teacher to join our small but mighty team at the little gem of Hauraki.

Now, before you panic ...

  • We don't expect you to do the splits.
  • Touching your toes is completely optional.
  • We won't ask you to bend over backwards (well ... not literally anyway!).
  • And cartwheels down the corridor are definitely not in the job description!

But ... we do need someone who can bend, stretch and adapt when it comes to teaching!

This is a bit of a jack-of-all-trades teaching position. One day you might be working with our littlies, the next with our big kids, and somewhere in between you'll be helping keep the Tirohia magic happening!

What we're offering

  • 0.4 FTTE, with the possibility of more hours for the right person.
  • A variety of teaching opportunities across the school.
  • A fabulous bunch of tamariki who will keep you on your toes (no ballet training required!).
  • A small, supportive team with a great sense of humour.
  • A school where you're a valued part of the whānau, not just another face in the staffroom.

What we're looking for

  • A registered teacher who enjoys a challenge.
  • Someone who can happily switch between age groups, programmes and roles.
  • A team player who can go with the flow (even when the flow changes direction!).
  • Someone with initiative, enthusiasm and a healthy sense of humour.
  • Someone who understands that in a small rural school, "That's not my job" isn't really our style!

So, if you're a teacher who is flexible in all the right ways (and doesn't need a chiropractor after reading this ad), we'd love to hear from you!
