Position
Expressions of interest are invited from suitably qualified applicants who are willing to take up a temporary full time classroom teacher position on a stage two class at Campsie Public School in terms two and three, 2017.
School Context
Campsie Public School, with a K–6 enrolment of 765 students, is a proud multicultural community in the inner west of the Sydney metropolitan area. The school is in the CBD of Campsie, adjacent to local shops and facilities. A wide range of public transport options are available enabling families to easily travel to and from school and workplaces. 98% of our students come from over 60 language backgrounds other than English. Our school timetable ensures a wide curriculum choice including languages, the arts and physical education, as well as prioritising the literacy ad numeracy needs of all students through effective curriculum differentiation (K-6). Campsie PS hosts the only Korean Bilingual program in NSW, also offering three additional community languages, as well as five other languages offered for study as a LOTE or through a club. The majority of students study a language other than English and some students study more than one. The school site is a small one and, as a result, the school utilises local facilities and operates lunch breaks on a rotating timetable to allow access to play areas, facilitating safe, regular physical activity. We utilise specialist staff to provide high quality educational and co-curricular programs. Campsie Public School has strong community support including a small but active P&C. There is an onsite Out of School Hours centre that provides quality care for students before and after school, as well as during school holidays. The school has strong links to community groups including the Salvation Army, Campsie RSL and a playgroup which operates within the school. The school is used for a wide range of activities outside school hours, including martial arts, language classes and church groups.
