Set across three beautiful campuses, FCCC is the epitome of a community school: inclusive, supportive, immersive and close-knit.  Staff and students at Flinders are called to flourish - connected by love, committed to growth, and capable of influence.  Known as The Flinders Way, this ethos underpins a thriving learning environment supported by excellent academic outcomes, strong pastoral care, and authentic community engagement.

The Head of Primary (K - Year 6) is responsible for the strategic and operational leadership of the Primary School, reports to the Head of Campus and is part of both the Campus and College Executive Teams.

The successful candidate will demonstrate the ability to:

  • Model and embed a Christian worldview through leadership and teaching
  • Lead and develop high-performing teams in a school setting
  • Champion student learning and engagement through evidence-based practice
  • Drive innovation, improvement and change within a collaborative environment
  • Communicate effectively across stakeholders and build strong relationships

Offered as a permanent executive leadership position, with a negotiable teaching allotment and commencing January 2026, applicants must have a right to work in Australia and be eligible for VIT registration.

All staff at Flinders model and demonstrate the reality of the Gospel by the way they undertake their employment responsibilities and by the way they live. Flinders staff espouse and live out the school's child safety policies and related policies and procedures (including the Code of Conduct), upholding the principles and values set out in legislative frameworks and regulations, at all times conducting themselves in accordance with the commitment to take all reasonable steps to promote the safety of children.

Flinders has a zero-tolerance policy for child abuse and is committed to promoting child safety, children's wellbeing and protecting children from abuse.
