ABOUT US

Trinity Anglican College is a co-educational school with over 1480 students from Kindergarten to Year 12.

We are the largest independent regional school in NSW and a proud member of the Anglican Schools Commission. The College has earned a reputation as the ‘school of choice’ in this region because we believe every child has the right to an engaging and joyful school experience.

Trinity is an inclusive, faith-based community school in the Anglican tradition that values the uniqueness of every child and community member.

Trinity has a dynamic and dedicated staff team. We believe in a collaborative staff culture and staff engagement, playing to people’s strengths and providing opportunities for development and growth.

THE ROLE The role of classroom teacher at Trinity Anglican College is a highly valued and rewarding position. Teachers in all year levels will work on growing the spiritual, academic, social, and emotional well-being of our greatest asset, our students.

Classroom teachers in lower primary classrooms will help students navigate their transition into a primary school setting, and ensure students and families are supported academically, socially, pastorally and spiritual.

Our philosophy regarding successful reading instruction is that phonics is a key element in learning to read. The delivery of systematic, synthetic phonics through effective teaching methods will be integral to your teaching of reading. The College uses a structured literacy approach to support our delivery of English skills in classrooms.

Contributing to the on-going development of teaching instruction by being involved in a shared learning culture of using research and evidence-based best practice pedagogies to inform growth in practice, is a rewarding part of a teacher at Trinity’s journey.
