Description
SPCC Teachers have an important responsibility to teach and minister in their gifts so that children and young people receive an excellent education with a holistic foundation embedded in Christian values for the whole of life. This will be done in close collaboration with the school executive and in strict compliance with the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers, relevant syllabus, policy and procedures, while upholding the mission and values of the College. We therefore seek Christians who are professionally and personally committed to bring their evangelical and Biblically based beliefs, values and practices to this ministry of supporting Christian Education.
