English as an Additional Language Teacher

Riccarton High School is a coeducational, multicultural secondary school in Christchurch, with a roll of over 1,100 students. We are known for high student achievement, inclusive practices, and a strong sense of community.

We work collaboratively to inspire active, connected, and deep-thinking learners. Central to our culture is the Riccarton way, guided by the values of manawanui | commitment, ngākaupono | honesty, manaakitanga | respect, and kairangi | excellence.

We are seeking a motivated and dedicated English as an Additional Language (EAL) teacher to join our EAL faculty. This is a part-time, fixed-term position for the 2027 school year. The fixed-term nature of the role reflects the need to maintain flexibility in responding to potential fluctuations in the school roll, ensuring staffing levels remain aligned with student enrolments and the school’s operational requirements.

This position may be particularly suited to a primary-trained teacher with experience in structured literacy and a passion for supporting students from diverse language backgrounds.

The position commences on Thursday 28 January 2027 and concludes at the end of the 2027 school year.

If you are interested in becoming a part of an innovative environment that fosters values of compassion, creativity, and academic achievement, we welcome your application.
