Are you a passionate Music Teacher looking for a rewarding opportunity in the art capital of Regional New South Wales?
Prospero Teaching Australia is excited to offer a fantastic opportunity for a dedicated and enthusiastic Music Teacher to join a well-managed and supportive Catholic public school. This medium-sized, mixed, all-through school is seeking to appoint a Head of Music on a full-time permanent basis, starting Term 3, 2025.
The school prides itself on a positive and nurturing teaching environment where students benefit from skilled, motivated, and diverse teachers. The school currently offers music education from Kindergarten to Year 10, with plans to expand to Year 11 by 2026.
