The Work Environment

Macarthur Anglican School is a Christian school, governed by a School Council of Christian men and women. It is the Council's firm intention to offer a Christian education to the boys and girls, so that they may "Enter to Learn, Go out to Serve" as leaders in the community. If you are selected to work at Macarthur Anglican School, you will become an important part of this vital ministry.

Macarthur is well respected in the community and strives to provide excellence in education. New employees are mentored by their colleagues as they begin work in the school. Modern building facilities and the natural beauty of the site make Macarthur a pleasant working environment.

At Macarthur, there is a concern for the personal and professional growth of employees.

Staff:

• work in a professional community where each teacher strives to deliver high quality education to each child at the School

• work in a school which teaches a traditional curriculum using modern and innovative pedagogy

• will embrace the best of Australian and international curricula

•enjoy abundant opportunities for professional development through the School's annual staff conference and through outside courses

A generous provision of support staff means that the School offers employment in a variety of non-teaching roles. These include administrative and clerical roles, teaching assistant positions at all levels in the School, building and grounds maintenance.
