About the role

Serviceton South State School values are

  • We Learn
  • We Care
  • We are team players

Every member of our school community commits to these three values and they are at the centre of school culture.

We also focus on QUALITY TEACHING AND LEARNING and POSITIVE CULTURE FOR LEARNING.

QUALITY TEACHING AND LEARNING

As a school we believe all 'students are OUR students and that through quality pedagogy, data literacy and implementation of the Australian Curriculum all students are supported on their individual learning journey.

POSITIVE CULTURE FOR LEARNING

Positive culture for learning is the basis on which we are able to support every student in the school. We have a strong focus on social wellbeing for students and staff across the school.

We also have strong links with our parents through regular communication via our Facebook page, regular emails to families and face to face contact. We also have strong links with our neighbouring schools and local agencies which enables us to be very much a part of our local community.

As Principal, you will lead the school community to develop, articulate and commit to a shared educational vision focused on providing quality learning outcomes for all students. You will translate this vision into clear priorities and lead the implementation of strategies that support ongoing school improvement.

You will model high standards of professional conduct and foster trust, respect and shared responsibility across the school community.

Embedding socially just practices in daily school life will be central to your leadership. You will ensure equity and fairness are reflected in the school's practices, policies and interactions, while supporting an environment that respects the diverse needs and contributions of students, staff and the wider community.

Through purposeful leadership and engagement with the school community, you will lead continuous improvement and ensure the school's vision, priorities and practices remain focused on providing quality educational experiences for all students.
