Role

Classroom teachers engage in critical reflection and inquiry to improve knowledge and skills, effectively engage students and improve their learning. Teachers may undertake other duties in addition to their rostered teaching duties, provided the responsibility is appropriate to the salary range, qualifications, training and experience.

They will provide expert advice on content, processes and strategies, supervise and train student teachers, and assist staff to use student data to inform teaching approaches. Range 2 teachers also model exemplary practice and mentor other teachers.
Range 1 classroom teachers focus on classroom management, subject content and teaching practice, operating under general direction. They teach a range of classes, are accountable for effective delivery, and assist with policy development, project teams and co‐curricula activities. New entrants receive structured support, mentoring and guidance.
