Location:Melbourne's west

About the Role
This school already runs the International Baccalaureate (IB) Middle Years Programme (MYP), and it wants someone to take it from good to excellent, then stay long enough to see the results.
You'll lead the MYP across the middle years, working with the school's learning area coordinators, and you'll keep a hand in the classroom with a 0.6 teaching load.
It's an ongoing post, and the coordinator appointment runs for three years, which is about how long real change in a programme takes to show.
What You'll Be Doing
Leading the MYP day to day: curriculum planning and review against IB requirements and the Australian Curriculum
Working alongside eight learning area coordinators on unit planning, concept-based inquiry and assessment, and getting them to own it
Running collaborative planning time and professional learning for staff
Coordinating MYP assessment, reporting and student-led conferences, plus NAPLAN implementation and making sense of the results
Being the school's main point of contact with the IB
Teaching a 0.6 load, including at least one middle years class (senior classes are possible too)
Who We're Looking For
Current VIT registration
Full working rights in Australia
Real experience with the IB MYP: teaching it, and ideally leading part of it, whether a subject group, a year level or the programme itself
Curriculum or pedagogical leadership experience




Comfortable with Compass or a similar learning management system
Happy to work within, and support, a faith-based school's ethos
An English background is a genuine plus, but a strong MYP leader from any subject will be seriously considered
About You
You've taught the MYP and you've led part of it, whether that's a subject group, a year level or a stint as acting coordinator.
You know your way around unit planners, the assessment criteria and moderation, and you can explain an IB requirement to a colleague without hiding behind the guide.
Now you're ready to own the whole programme.
If you come from English, even better, but it's the MYP know-how that matters most.
You're thinking long term about where the programme will be in three years, not three terms.
What's on Offer
An ongoing teaching post with a three-year leadership appointment on top, so stepping up doesn't mean giving up security
A coordinator allowance on top of your teacher salary
A 0.6 teaching load, so there's real time to do the leadership part properly
A seat at the curriculum leadership table, working directly with the Head of Learning
A growing school that's committed to the IB and wants someone to build with, not just maintain
The School
An independent, co-educational, faith-based school in Melbourne's west
An IB World School running the MYP across its middle years
Growing, and investing in the people who'll lead it
Why Work With Armitage Collective

The school is ready to interview as soon as it sees the right person, so I'll move quickly and keep you across where things stand at every step.
Everything's confidential until you say otherwise, and it costs you nothing, ever.
