Location ProfileThank you for your interest in the Teacher Grad Recruit Program - Secondary EAL Teacher 2025 at Noble Park English Language School. Our school is a multi-campus institution providing an intensive English language course for newly arrived migrants and refugees from non-English speaking backgrounds in the southeast Victoria region.
The students are introduced to the Victorian education system and assisted with settlement in Victoria. The curriculum focuses on the study of the English language while preparing students for life in Australia. Many students have been displaced by war, economic hardship, or political persecution. The school is committed to helping students regain trust in people and systems and develop the self-esteem and confidence required to face the challenges of a new country.
At any given time, over 50 different language groups are represented. The school provides a secure and caring learning environment where staff and students respect and tolerate differences between cultures and religions, catering to individual differences in language acquisition.
Since 2009, the school has expanded to four campuses due to changing settlement patterns in the region. The main campus is at Noble Park, catering for both primary and secondary students. The Casey campus is located at Hampton Park for primary and secondary students, while our Springvale and Stonnington (Glen Huntly) campuses cater for primary students.
Please provide a copy of your current VIT registration and certified copies of your qualifications with your application.
