Role description

The Knox School is an independent, co-educational, and non-denominational community from ELC to Year 12, where every student is known, valued, and supported to grow. Achievement, Care, Empathy, Resilience, Responsibility and Respect are equally valued here, because education is not just about what students learn, but about creating individuals who are adaptable, thoughtful, and ready to write their own stories.

Our teachers know their students deeply, creating personalised learning experiences that build confidence, spark curiosity, and inspire a lifelong love of learning. We celebrate individuality, courage, and connection, preparing young people to contribute thoughtfully and confidently to the world around them.

We have again been recognised as an Employer of Choice and one of the 5-Star Best Schools 2026 by The Educator, a testament to our commitment to creating an environment where both students and staff feel valued, inspired, and supported to thrive.

The Knox School is seeking an enthusiastic and creative Performing Arts Teacher to join our dynamic learning community in 2027. This is an exciting opportunity for a passionate educator with demonstrated expertise in Drama and Theatre Studies, who is eager to inspire students and contribute to a vibrant Performing Arts program.

Candidates with the appropriate experience and leadership capability may also be considered for a Learning Design Leader position, with responsibility for advancing curriculum excellence, supporting colleagues and contributing to the strategic growth of Performing Arts across the School.
