DP Math Teacher

Permanent, Full-Time 

Mulgrave School teachers inspire students to achieve their personal best by providing a rich and engaging programme that develops students’ skills, promotes curiosity and love of learning, and prioritises well-being. We are now seeking applicants for the role of DP Math Teacher, to start in August 2025. 

Our School is a fast-paced and highly collaborative professional environment, where innovation is encouraged and student learning and well-being drive everything we do. Our teachers are passionate about this age group, and appreciate the unique challenges and rewards of working with young adolescents. They get to know their students well, both in and out of the classroom, and work together to ensure that every student is appropriately challenged, feels safe and seen, and knows that they belong at Mulgrave.

A low student-teacher ratio and a stimulating, well-resourced, technology-rich environment make this an exceptional place to teach. Teachers benefit from 2.5 hours per week of collaborative planning time built into the schedule, allowing subject teams to work closely together and learn from one another. Teaching and learning are supported by two specialist lab technicians.
