Science Teacher

Canterbury College is one of Queensland's leading Anglican ELC-12 schools, located in the rapidly growing corridor spanning Logan, the northern Gold Coast and southern Brisbane. We are seeking an outstanding Teacher of Science to join our school for a Semester 2 contract teaching Years 7 to 9.

Since 1987, Canterbury has deliberately built a culture that is both high-performing and deeply human. Our students are known not only for their academic outcomes, but for the way they contribute across the full life of the College. We believe that the best education is balanced, ambitious and future-focused, where learning extends beyond the classroom and where every student is challenged to grow.

This is captured through our commitment to the Four Dimensions: Academics, Sport, Performing Arts and Character, Leadership and Service. These are not add-ons. They are integral to how we design learning, build community and develop confident, capable young people who are ready for the world beyond school.

Whether you are an early career teacher eager to begin your profession or an experienced educator looking for your next opportunity, we welcome your application.

At Canterbury, you will teach students who bring energy and focus to their learning. Our young people are known for being kind, polite and motivated, and for their willingness to embrace challenge and pursue excellence across all areas of College life.
