At St Albans School | Te Kura o Hato Ōpani, we are growing a community of learners who make the world a better place.
For 2027, we are looking for 4 kaiako who want to be part of what we are building.
Our direction is clear: every ākonga deserves excellent Tier 1 teaching, every day.
We are developing a coherent whole-school approach grounded in the Science of Learning, explicit instruction and evidence-informed practice.
Alongside this sits an equally strong commitment to relationships, culturally responsive and trauma-informed practice, inclusion, identity and belonging.
For us, these aren't competing approaches. Great teaching requires all of them.
We'd love to hear from kaiako who
- build genuine relationships with ākonga and whānau
- create calm, safe and predictable learning environments
- believe in explicit, structured teaching and high expectations
- are experienced in, or keen to learn, structured literacy
- use evidence and assessment to respond to learner needs
- value culture, language and identity
- enjoy learning, coaching and working collaboratively.
You don't need to arrive as an expert. You do need to be willing to learn.
Experienced teachers and beginning teachers are warmly encouraged to apply.
Strong induction, professional learning, coaching and collaborative team structures support our kaiako to grow.
If this sounds like the way you want to teach, we'd love to meet you.
