Goldfields Baptist College, WA
Goldfields Baptist College is the only Kindergarten to Year 12 registered educational facility in Kalgoorlie-Boulder, creating a consistent pathway on a student's learning journey. We are a multicultural, multi-denominational, co-educational school that offers a holistic Christian education. Our learning, pastoral care, and relationships are built upon a strong Christian foundation, and we are extremely proud of our working environment, which is one of unparalleled support and community.
Our Mission
At GBC, we are creating a flourishing educational community that is being transformed by the Truth of God's word. We are nurturing and equipping each person for life, empowering them to be thriving contributors in the world.
Location
Kalgoorlie is 600km from Perth, which means a 50-minute flight, an approximately six-hour train trip, or an approximately six and a half hour drive through regional Western Australia. Once in the Goldfields, you might be surprised at what is available in our remote city. With a population of over 30,000, the facilities and amenities available to you are not that different to what is found in the Perth suburbs.
Opportunities
One of the many positives in working in a small school in regional Western Australia is the opportunity to begin or further your path into School Leadership in a warm and welcoming environment. Small regional schools also offer excellent opportunities for flexibility in work arrangements. Many of our staff members are parents, both with children enrolled at the College, and some with children enrolled elsewhere. There is considerable flexibility in adjusting timetables and strong understanding of those 'drop and run' times under all kinds of personal circumstances.
Position and Requirements
This position is available at a 1.0 FTE. Experience in middle management is preferred, though highly organised and professional teachers with strong recommendations who are ready to begin their journey into leadership will also be considered. Applicants will also be required to demonstrate:
Evidence of registration with the Teacher Registration Board of Western Australia (GBC will consider Limited Authority to Teach applications for staff who are in the process of attaining registration due to interstate relocations, etc.)
Valid Working with Children Check
Right to work in Australia
Engagement with GBC's Christian ethos
Applications for this position close at 4:00pm on Friday the 6th December, 2024. Further details and our application form can be found on the College website at www.gbc.wa.edu.au. GBC is committed to the protection and safeguarding of children and young people. Applicants will be expected to satisfy and comply with the requirements of the Child Safe Standards, as specified by the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations WA.
