Intermediate Phase Teacher (Grade 5) – Entry Level

You'll plan and teach CAPS lessons that stick at a low-fee private school in Phalaborwa. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

The work is in Phalaborwa, Limpopo, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

• Supervise break duty, sport or a cultural activity each term
• Give extra lessons to learners who are falling behind
• Keep learner profiles and a tidy teacher file for subject advisers
• Plan weekly lessons against the CAPS annual teaching plan
• Meet parents to discuss progress, behaviour and support plans

• At least 1 year of classroom teaching, including teaching practice
• Clear record on the National Register for Sex Offenders and a police clearance
• You can manage a class of 35 or more without losing control
• Good spoken and written command of the language of teaching

• Experience with remedial or inclusive education
• Coaching experience in a major school sport

• Paid SACE CPTD workshops
• School holidays in line with the school calendar
• Fee discount for your own children at independent schools

• Add your matric results or pass rates for your classes if they improved; hard numbers beat adjectives.
