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 2026 school year. Appointments may be offered at any time for vacancies that commence during this period.
Shenton College is one of Australia’s leading co-educational schools and consists of Middle School (Years 7 & 8), Lower Senior School (Years 9 & 10) and Upper Senior School (Years 11 & 12). The College currently has approximately 2800 students and 300 staff. The College’s strength is in its commitment to develop the 'whole child' and to empower them to be independent and confident learners so that they can be purposeful contributors in an increasingly independent world.

At Shenton College, we strive to ignite curiosity and foster a lifelong love of learning. Our unique approach focuses on delivering an educational experience that’s about much more than marks – we aim to help each of our students develop their dreams and achieve their goals.
