Launceston Christian School is a co-educational independent K-12 Christian School on one campus, set beside the beautiful Tamar River with views to the mountains. The school is distinctively Christ-centred and is committed to providing for the spiritual, emotional, social, physical and academic flourishing of all school community members. We are proud to offer a quality Christian education within a nurturing and supportive workplace, where each student is encouraged to find their identity in Christ and celebrated for their God-given uniqueness.

We have an exciting prospect for a Teacher Trainee to join our school community in January 2027.

Our teacher trainee model is unique and different from the standard pathway to teaching:
Teacher Trainees undertake their role with a view to complete an accredited initial teacher education (ITE) course through Alphacrucis University College and to enter employment with Launceston Christian School as a registered teacher upon course completion.




Teacher Trainees are employed part time at our school and work alongside a mentor teacher for each year of their employment/training and will undertake progressive duties over this period to build their practice skills in preparation for graduate teaching proficiency.
On successful graduation and ongoing employment at the school, a significant contribution towards course fees is offered.

Applicants will need to be:
Practicing Christians, actively involved in their local church and able to subscribe to the School’s Mission Statement and Educational Creed
Eligible to undertake full-time study with Alphacrucis. Pathways are available for both Primary and Secondary teacher training.
Registered with a current Working With Vulnerable People (Employment) Card

Commencement:

27th January 2027
