Food technology teacher, North-East Melbourne, January 2027

Food Technology, Horticulture, Agriculture Teacher

Location: Melbourne
Commencement: January 2027
Employment: Full-Time

Prospero Teaching Australia is excited to present a genuinely unique opportunity for a Food Technology, Horticulture, Agriculture or Technologies Teacher to join a progressive secondary college in Melbourne.

This isn't your traditional classroom teaching role.

From paddcock to plate

Imagine teaching students where they can grow the produce, harvest it, prepare it, cook it and ultimately see it used within their own school community.

The College has a large farm-based learning environment and is developing an exciting Urban Agriculture and College Food System.

The vision:

Grow it - harvest it - prepare it - cook it - sell it

Students can be involved in:

  • Horticulture and food production

  • Farm-based learning

  • Growing fruit, vegetables and produce

  • Food Technology and food preparation

  • Café and food enterprise

  • Student entrepreneurship

  • Sustainability and food systems

  • Real-world business and employability skills

This is your chance to build something:
The program is continuing to grow, with new infrastructure and opportunities being developed.
They're looking for someone who doesn't just want to teach about food.
They want someone who wants to get involved.
Someone who loves horticulture.
Someone who understands food production.
Someone who enjoys practical learning.

Someone who gets excited about seeing students grow something, make something and then turn it into something real.

Who would love this role?

This could be perfect for a Food Technology Teacher, Horticulture Teacher, Agriculture Teacher, Technologies Teacher with a passion for hands-on, practical and authentic learning.

You could help develop:

  • Farm-to-table learning

  • Food production

  • Café initiatives

  • Student enterprise

  • Business and entrepreneurship

  • Sustainability programs

  • Food Technology

  • Agriculture and horticulture pathways

WHY THIS ROLE STANDS OUT

You're not simply stepping into an established program.

You can help shape what comes next.

There is genuine scope to bring your own ideas, experience and passion to the program and help create something students will remember long after they leave school.

Imagine students being able to say:

“I grew that.”

“I cooked that.”

“I helped sell that.”

“I built that business.”

That's authentic education.

Horticulture + Agriculture + Food + Sustainability + Enterprise

If you love practical education, enjoy working with young people and want to be part of something innovative and still developing, this is an opportunity worth exploring.
