Help Shape Inclusive Education in a Growing High School
Are you an experienced learning support educator or classroom teacher who understands adolescents and wants to make a meaningful difference across a whole school?
In this role, you will lead inclusive education at Parkerville Steiner College, working alongside teachers to strengthen whole-class practice, managing Education Assistants, and coordinating targeted intervention programs for students who require additional support.
With approximately 120 students across Years 7 to 11, our small high school offers something increasingly rare: the chance to know students well, work closely with colleagues and families, and see the direct impact of your work.
Our students are thoughtful, engaged and respectful young people.
They bring curiosity and personality to the classroom, respond positively to clear expectations, and are often described as a delight to teach.
An experienced classroom teacher seeking to transition into learning support may be particularly well suited to this position.
You do not need to have previously held a formal learning support title.
Staff Reflections
"Since joining Parkerville Steiner College, I have felt re-energised as an educator. I am more attuned to the rhythm and flow of lessons, and I experience a renewed joy in planning learning sequences that allow deeper understanding to unfold."
"The space we are given as teachers to explore Main Lesson topics in depth is inspiring. I wish every young person had the opportunity to learn this way."
Parkerville Steiner College provides a Steiner high school education in the Perth Hills.
Our curriculum brings together academic learning with creative, practical and experiential education, supporting young people through the important developmental years of adolescence.
Our staff are committed to inclusive practice, compassionate care, and the safety and wellbeing of every student.
You do not need to be Steiner-trained.
You will, however, need a genuine interest in Steiner education and in working with adolescents in a holistic and developmentally responsive way.
What You Will Bring to the Role

You will understand how to work alongside classroom teachers, helping them develop whole-class strategies, practical adjustments, scaffolding and differentiated approaches that support a broad range of learners.
You may also bring experience implementing or managing literacy, numeracy or other targeted intervention programs.

Why This Work Matters
Adolescence is a significant period of academic, social and emotional development.
Students need learning support that recognises their individual needs while also respecting their growing independence, dignity and connection to their peers.




You will help ensure that students who learn differently are supported within the life of the classroom, rather than only at its margins.
By strengthening teachers' whole-class practice, coordinating purposeful intervention, and leading Education Assistants effectively, you will help more students access learning, develop confidence and remain connected to their class.
In a small high school, you will have the opportunity to notice students early, understand their needs in context and contribute directly to their progress.
