Overview
This is a 36 month fixed term, full-time position commencing Term 1, 2026 with possible extension. Jigalong is an Aboriginal community located 170 kilometres east of Newman on the edge of The Great Sandy Desert. On the western side of the Rabbit Proof Fence, this is the Pilbara community which gained international recognition with the 2002 film of the same name. Jigalong Remote Community School (RCS) is a K-12 school and part of the Remote Teaching Service. It is located just 2 hours drive east of Newman, where all essential services can be accessed. The school enjoys excellent relations with the Martu community. Currently, the school has a team of 6 dedicated teachers, in addition to several AIEOs and EAs, a school officer, gardener, and a cook. Jigalong RCS has well-established routines and processes that facilitate a positive and safe environment for our students. Within the community of Jigalong, there are many service providers, including an excellent health clinic, a permanently staffed police station, a shop, a youth centre, and a ranger station. All teacher's houses are located in the same area, away from the centre of the community. It is a quiet and safe place to live. Find out more about our school by visiting Schools Online.
