Applications are warmly invited for the position of Deputy Principal - Learning and Teaching at Thomas Carr College in Tarneit, Melbourne. This is an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic, experienced educational leader who is committed to making a positive difference to the lives of students, staff and families.

The Deputy Principal - Learning and Teaching plays a significant role at Thomas Carr College. The position requires:

- An exceptional educational leader with outstanding strategic and visionary skills
- A research-informed and purposeful leader, who inspires relevant, authentic and contemporary programs
- An outstanding communicator who fosters community and builds stakeholder capacity.

**School Overview**:
Thomas Carr College began in 1997 with 72 Year 7 students, situated on a temporary site in Tarneit Road. Classes began in portables with donated equipment being the only materials available for the staff and students, however, a great relationship between the staff and students emerged that could only be developed in such a small community. These students went on to complete the College’s first VCE classes in 2002.

It is this spirit that has transformed Thomas Carr College from a small school into one of the prominently known Colleges in the western suburbs of Melbourne. There have also been many physical changes that have occurred since our first year. We are now surrounded by contemporary buildings. We have also been increasing our presence in the international market. We have sister school relationships with several schools across Asia. The College regularly hosts visits from these international schools throughout the school year.

Thomas Carr College is a dynamic Catholic learning community guided by our Gospel values. Our Catholic faith has a vital role to fulfil in the education of our students; it is at the very core of our purpose and identity. Each Thomas Carr College staff member bears witness to these values in their interactions with staff, students, families and the community.

**Position Summary**:
The College embraces a learning culture where excellence in the spiritual, academic, cultural and co-curricular areas is encouraged, recognised and celebrated. Relationships are the cornerstone of learning at Thomas Carr College and are central to the community’s wellbeing.

The position of Deputy Principal is an important leadership position within the College in supporting the Principal and community to enact the mission and vision of the College.
