We are seeking to establish a pool of Mainstream Education Assistants for permanent and fixed term, full-time and part-time vacancies which may arise during the 2027 school year. Appointments may be offered at any time for vacancies that commence during this period.

Moorditj Noongar Community School is a departmental co-educational Primary school supporting approximately 125 Aboriginal students from Midland and the wider surrounds. Moorditj Noongar was founded in 2001 and is set in the quiet surrounds of Black Adder Creek. Our classes are capped at approximately 20 students, and each class has the support of a Teacher and Education Assistant. Additional supports such as a School Psychologist, Chaplaincy, Aboriginal Indigenous Education Officers and a Speech Pathologist work collaboratively to allow for improved outcomes for our students. We aim to close the gap for our Aboriginal students and deliver rich cultural opportunities for all.
