Join our team as a Primary Teacher at St Joseph's Catholic School, Mount Isa!
We’re looking for passionate and dedicated Primary Teachers with tertiary qualifications and registration (or eligibility) with the Queensland College of Teachers to teach grades from Prep-6.
You’ll join a supportive team of committed teachers who work together in partnership with the parent community to create the best possible learning experience for every student. Your understanding of contemporary teaching practices, and your ability to adapt and support a diverse range of learners, will help every child feel included, valued, and confident.
In your classroom, you’ll spark curiosity and a love of learning by designing engaging lessons, setting clear expectations, and continually reflecting on your practice to keep improving. You’ll use a range of assessment tools to understand each student’s progress, celebrate their growth, and give meaningful feedback that helps them thrive.
Guided by Catholic values, you’ll embrace the school’s mission, prioritise student safety and wellbeing, and help create a welcoming, supportive environment where every learner feels they belong.
Based in the heart of Queensland’s outback, Mount Isa offers a truly unique lifestyle - a welcoming community surrounded by striking landscapes and endless skies. From weekends at Lake Moondarra to the excitement of the famous Mount Isa Rodeo, life here blends adventure with a relaxed, close-knit country spirit, making it a rewarding place to live and teach
