The School
NEMLDC is seeking to establish a pool of motivated and dedicated teachers to join our school for children who have Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). We provide specialist speech, language and academic intervention for children from Kindergarten to Year 2. We are an early intervention facility, and our students typically exit to their mainstream schools at the end of year 2.
Staff members work and plan collaboratively within an interdisciplinary team which includes teachers, speech pathologists, an occupational therapist, school psychologist, education assistants and administration staff. Our language programs are integrated into the Western Australian Curriculum and Early Years Learning Framework.

You will ideally have a sound understanding of the Western Australian Curriculum and the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers.
Suitable applicants offered a position will be provided with induction and training to develop their skills and understanding of DLD and how to best support the needs of their students. Suitable applicants will be provided with ongoing support through coaching, mentors, performance development and collaborative learning.
Suitable applicants will ideally be flexible, energetic and prepared to engage in partnerships with colleagues, speech pathologists, parents and other agencies.
