EOI - Teacher Aide - Stretton State College

About this role

This temporary vacancy is open to Expressions of Interest and any extensions to this appointment will not exceed 12 months.

Who We Are:

Our over-arching goal at Stretton State College is to nurture and develop each individual student so that after 13 years of education with us, they leave school with the skills, knowledge and values necessary to be a world-ready citizen.

When students graduate from Stretton at the end of Year 12, they take with them the skills and attributes to make a positive difference to their world - a fast-moving world filled with uncertainty and complexity, a world where relationships need to be enhanced and nurtured.

The College opened in 2006 and has quickly forged a well-deserved reputation as a high performing school.  In 2023, our enrolment is predicted to consist of 3450 students.

As a large P-12 metropolitan school, we are in the unique position to be able to provide our students with the opportunities, choice, community and room for growth that makes a Stretton education so special.
