Teacher of Humanities (Social Studies - Geography - Psychology - Enterprise)

St Paul’s Collegiate School is one of New Zealand’s premier independent day and boarding schools. With a growing roll of 880 students, we provide a learning environment that fosters academic excellence, character development, and meaningful contributions beyond our school gates.

This is an exciting time to join our school. At the start of this year, we welcomed our first cohort of junior girls (Year 9). In 2027 this group will progress into Year 10, resulting in a fully co-educational school offering from Year 9 to Year 13 for all students. In response to this growth, we are seeking a passionate and innovative kaiako to join our Social Sciences Department and ideally teach a combination of Social Studies, Psychology, Geography, Enterprise and/or Business studies.

We’re looking for someone who places aakonga at the centre of their teaching, brings a solution-focused and collaborative mindset, and demonstrates a strong understanding of maatauranga Maaori. You’ll be a team player who strives for excellence in both practice and outcomes and who enjoys engaging and inspiring students through dynamic learning experiences.

At St Paul’s, we are committed to cultivating educated contributors. Our mission is to inspire minds, build character, and shape futures -and we are looking for a teacher who shares this purpose and will bring it to life in the classroom.

St Paul’s is well-resourced, with small class sizes and highly motivated, self-disciplined students. Staff enjoy a range of benefits, including daily cooked lunches, generous leave provisions, and a supportive, collegial environment. A competitive remuneration package is on offer, comprising the teacher salary scale plus a St Paul’s Allowance of $5,320 per annum. An annual bonus round also rewards staff involvement in our co-curricular programme and academic scholarship.

This permanent, full-time role offers a negotiable start date, subject to the successful candidate's availability.
