Teacher of English specialising in English Language Learners

Wakatipu High School’s vision is Aotearoa New Zealand’s best all-round education. We are looking for a great educator to join our collaborative and forward-thinking learning area and school. The successful applicant will be excited by the opportunity to deliver a future-focused and holistic education in a flexible learning environment - they will be pedagogically progressive, student-centred, have a growth mindset, form effective relationships, and be ready to contribute to the all-round education of our students. 

We are seeking an experienced and qualified English teacher to deliver the New Zealand English curriculum in a way that supports students who are English Language Learners.
