Position Information

The Forest High School is a co-educational, comprehensive secondary school for Years 7 to 12 students with a unit of three special education classes catering for the learning needs of students with autism.

The school is located in Northern Metropolitan Sydney's Northern Beaches area. The student population currently sits at 770 students. Our school community is culturally and linguistically diverse. Approximately 20% of students are from an EAL/D (English an additional language or dialect) background.

2.2% of all students identify as having Aboriginal background, with some of the students coming from rural and remote areas of NSW.

Students participate in a wide range of curricular and extra-curricular learning experiences focusing on academic improvement and excellence across a range of academic, cultural, sporting and vocational pursuits.

The school is strongly supported by its diverse community, with an active Parent and Community (P&C) Committee.

A comprehensive situational analysis has been conducted which led to development of the most recent Strategic Improvement Plan, both of which involved genuine consultation with students, staff and parents.

The school has established in-house enterprise learning opportunities for students, including a student managed coffee café.

Students represent the school across the metropolitan area in art exhibitions, music and dance ensembles, charity work, public speaking and a wide range of sporting activities with national, state and regional representation.

Specific Selection Criteria

Approval to teach English 7-12 and willingness and experience when teaching English Ext 1 and 2 and EAL/D.
A visible team player with experience and capacity supporting a range of students including those from a non English speaking background.
Capacity and willingness to deliver professional learning for staff that builds their capacity to differentiate for students across a range of learning needs.
Strong interpersonal and communication skills with proven success when building positive partnerships with the wider school community.
