What kind of positions are available?
We place much more than just classroom teachers! We've got teaching roles across primary, secondary, early years, and specialist areas. We also usually have leadership positions available, including principals, deputy principals, and senior teachers. Beyond teaching, we have director, room leader, and coordinator positions in early years services. Sometimes we also have counsellor, wellbeing, and coordinator roles available. Most of our placements are in primary and secondary teaching, but we also work with not-for-profit organisations and childcare centres. We place educators and professionals across government, independent, and Catholic schools. Whether you're looking for a short-term gig or something longer, we've got options.

How long can I stay in a placement?
It's totally flexible! Placements range from 4 weeks up to a full year and ongoing. Most are term-based or longer, which gives you stability and lets you really make an impact in the community. You can chat about what works best for you during your interview.
