Role description
We are seeking to establish a pool of Deputy Principals 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.
Our school motto, 'Wisdom and Courage', derived from the traits of our mascot, the Gryphon, is reflected in the strength of our community. The people of Lockridge are steadfast in their connection to our school and the land on which we learn and grow together is culturally and historically rich. These two qualities provide a strong foundation on which to help our students become quality social citizens. Located in the City of Swan, we are fortunate to be on country that has been inhabited for over 40,000 years by the Whadjuk Noongar people.
We are a values-driven school, who pride ourselves on fostering a culture through our positive approach to relationships, learning and life. This approach helps us support our students to understand and demonstrate our values of RESPECT, SAFE and HIGH STANDARDS. These values help our students exhibit the skills necessary to live strong, healthy lives, with the term, 'Lockridge Strong' becoming synonymous with our school community over recent years when celebrating our successes.
