Classroom Teacher (Junior Campus) - Y Community School

Looking for a teaching role that truly supports you?

We're growing! In January 2027, Y Community School opens its doors to a brand-new junior campus for year 7-9 students, and we want you to help us build it.

At Y Community School, we've created an environment where our teachers can thrive, professionally and personally. Whether you're a primary or secondary teacher, if you're ready for a different kind of teaching experience - one built on connection, flexibility and purpose - we'd love to hear from you.

About Y Community School

We are an independent school focused on re-engaging young people who have become disengaged in mainstream education, supporting them to build the skills and confidence to reach their goals and create meaningful futures. Established in 2024, our senior campus in Epping provides a safe, inclusive space where students can thrive. And we're growing, with a junior campus set to open in 2027. Built on the pillars of wellbeing, academic growth and vocational opportunity, our Y program is founded on evidence, experience and a student led approach.

Our Teachers Matter

We recognise that our impact is driven by our teachers and deeply value the expertise, care, and commitment they bring to shaping each student's journey. We're committed to support you, through:

- A collaborative team and responsive leadership that genuinely value your voice and ideas.

- Prioritised staff wellbeing, including adaptable work arrangements, shorter school days, and fewer meetings - because we know balance makes better teachers.
- Career Development and growth opportunities to support a rewarding, sustainable career in education.
