Internships

Sydney Catholic Schools supports teacher interns in their pursuit to upskill students to become tomorrow’s leaders. We provide excellence in teaching and learning, where soon-to-be teachers are recognised for their contributions and encouraged to be innovative, inspiring and socially accountable.

By undertaking an internship with us, you will actively develop your teaching readiness in a supportive professional work environment, with the inclusion of personalised mentoring.

As an intern, you will be employed and paid as a member of staff, two days per week (0.4 FTE) including paid leave during school holidays and sick leave in accordance with your part-time status.

On successful completion, you will be provided with a permanent teaching position within one of our Sydney Catholic schools, and will be reimbursed the cost of six subject fees (in agreement to working for Sydney Catholic Schools for a minimum of three years).

• Be supportive of the ethos and values of Catholic education as expressed in the Principles of Employment In Sydney Catholic Schools.
• Be in the final year of your Teacher Education course in 2020.
• Have a strong academic record in Secondary Mathematics and/or Secondary Science (Physics and/or Chemistry) teaching OR have a strong academic record in Primary Mathematics.
• If you are selected, you will need to complete our Registration to Teach process which includes a NSW Working with Children’s Check.

All applicants are required to complete a Teacher Capability Assessment (TCAT), which is administered by the University of Melbourne and provide requested documents. If you would like to apply, please:

• submit a resume
• provide certified copies of academic transcripts and HSC results
• prepare and submit a short video.

If you are selected for an interview, you will be contacted by a member of the recruitment team to schedule a panel interview date and time.

We will conduct the interview process in early August 2019. Please note that if you cannot attend interviews during this time you will not be eligible.

Interviews will be held at Sydney Catholic Schools Central Office, 38 Renwick Street, Leichhardt, NSW.
