Teacher Aides

The Younity School is Moreton Bay's independent special assistance middle school, currently supporting 90 students in Years 7 to 9 to re-engage in education and rediscover their love of learning.

Since opening in July 2024, we have built a reputation for inclusive, inspiring, and safe classrooms where students thrive. Demand continues to far exceed available places — and our school is growing, with expansion to Years 5 and 6 by 2028.

We are looking for experienced Teacher Aides who want to do more than "just assist" and are excited to help shape a pioneering school community and walk alongside young people on their learning journey.

• Full-time and part-time permanent positions

• Pay rates from $32 to $45 per hour, plus NFP salary packaging benefits

• Support students one-on-one, in small groups, and in class settings to access the curriculum

• Assist teachers in creating safe, strengths-based, trauma-informed classrooms

• Help prepare learning resources, support daily routines, and encourage student participation

• Contribute to small class environments with high staff-to-student ratios

• Work within a multidisciplinary team including teachers, youth workers, and family support staff

We are looking for the right people, not just the right CV. You will be:

• Experienced (minimum 3 years) in supporting student learning (school-based or child-related experience essential)

• Adaptable, resilient, and creative in your approach

• A confident communicator who builds trust easily

• Patient, energetic, and able to bring a sense of humour to your work

• Passionate about supporting young people to re-engage in learning

• Fluent in spoken and written English

• Holding a current Working with Children Check (Blue Card)

Experience with students with disability, trauma backgrounds, or additional learning needs will be highly regarded.

• Competitive pay ($32–$45/hr) plus NFP salary packaging

• Term-time work with school holiday breaks

• Small class sizes and high staff-to-student ratios

• Professional development in trauma-informed and innovative special assistance education

• Opportunities for career growth and leadership within a rapidly expanding school

• A supportive, values-driven culture where every staff member is valued
