1 week ago


Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Queensland Department of Education Full time $80,000 - $120,000 per year

Multiple Opportunities exist for highly skilled, innovative and experienced English, Mathematics and Health and Physical Education teachers to join the Wacol Youth Remand Education Support Hub (WYRESH). The hub is a stand-alone interim facility operating as a campus of the Queensland Education and Training Centre (QETC). Our vision is one of equity and excellence in a progressive, high performing education system that realises the potential of every student.

WYRESH is a co-educational school, delivering educational programs for up to 76 remanded young people at the Youth Justice operated Wacol Youth Remand Centre located at Wacol. It is intended that young people will only be held on remand at this centre for short periods. The curriculum is focused on individualised Literacy and Numeracy learning, Health and Physical Education and through a social development program which utilises personal and social capabilities and aims to prepare students for a successful transition to school, employment or further training. Our staff are passionate about helping improve the knowledge, skills and abilities of our students, many of whom have had disrupted or negative experiences of schooling and often have lived through complex trauma and disadvantage.

About The Role
Teachers will work collaboratively with the Leadership Team and staff across QETC campuses and key stakeholders from interdepartmental agencies to " unlock learning" for our students.

The ideal candidates, from the primary and secondary sectors, will have experience in student-centred learning with the ability to fulfil the campus' obligation to close individual skills gaps, develop language, positive behaviours and social skills and create future pathway opportunities.

In order to maintain engagement of students across the year, Queensland youth detention centre schools' education delivery model runs over a 48-week school year. The employment entitlements for staff are the same as other State Schools however this model provides an exciting opportunity to access other flexible work agreements.
