Role description
We are seeking to establish a pool of Special Needs Education Assistants for permanent and fixed term, full-time and part-time vacancies which may arise during the 2027 school year. Appointments may be offered at any time for vacancies that commence during this period.
Quinns Beach Primary School (PS) is located 15 kilometres north of Joondalup, catering for students from Kindergarten to Year 6. We have a reputation for a highly professional and supportive culture. Our students experience many opportunities to participate in learning experiences that cater for student interests, learning styles and needs. In addition to the usual primary curriculum, we offer specialist programs in Music, Art, Physical Education, Science and Indonesian.
We are dedicated to addressing the social and educational needs of all our students. Our school embraces and celebrates the cultural diversity of our community, welcoming students from our local community, across Australia and overseas. Our school has strong connections with the Noongar people who are the traditional owners of the land Quinns Beach PS is situated upon, and our aboriginal students make up 10% of our student body. Of our current student cohort, 5% of our students present with a physical, cognitive, sensory or social disability requiring learning adjustments. Our friendly, supportive and inclusive environment creates endless opportunities for students to achieve personal success.
