Teacher Librarian

Description:

Edmondson Park Public School is a new school opening in early 2023 with 44 collaborative teaching spaces catering for 1,000 students in flexible, open, agile learning environments. Our school services a highly aspirational community where the continual focus is quality teaching and high expectations in a thriving learning environment focused on the whole child. At Edmondson Park Public School, teachers as well as students demonstrate flexibility, adaptiveness, and a willingness to be open to new learning reflective of establishing and maintaining collective teacher efficacy in open learning environments that are governed by collaborative practice pedagogies, shared ownership of learning space and where high levels of emotional intelligence, robust conversation and feedback are paramount. As we establish our dynamic school, we will be working towards becoming a Glasser Quality School. A Glasser Quality School actively builds quality relationships, encourages quality work from all, provides a need-satisfying environment and aims to encourage all learners and staff to achieve to their potential.
