Teacher - Primary

Join the dedicated team at Swayneville State School, a small and welcoming rural school where every student is known, valued and supported. We are seeking passionate teachers to join our inclusive school community in two rewarding opportunities, where you'll work collaboratively to make a genuine difference in the lives of students with diverse strengths, backgrounds and learning needs.

Swayneville State School is a small, inclusive rural school committed to creating a safe, supportive and engaging learning environment where every student can thrive. Our close-knit team works collaboratively to provide personalised learning experiences for students with a broad range of academic, social, emotional and behavioural needs, ensuring each child is supported to achieve success. Teachers at Swayneville value strong relationships, teamwork and innovative teaching practices, making it an ideal school for educators who are passionate about inclusive education and making a meaningful impact every day.

Current Opportunities:

• Inclusion - Prep - 6 (Temporary, Part-time 0.8FTE, 18/08/2026 - 11/12/2026)
• Primary - Prep - 6 (Permanent, Full time, Commencing 21/01/2027)

Two teaching opportunities are available, and candidates are encouraged to apply for either role individually or express interest in both. For candidates interested in both opportunities, this presents the potential for a seamless transition from the temporary Inclusion Teacher role into the permanent classroom teaching position, offering continuity for both the successful applicant and the school community.
