Intermediate Phase Teacher (Grade 5)

You'll plan and teach CAPS lessons that stick at a public high school in Prospecton. You don't need to be the loudest person in the room, just the one others can count on.

The work is in Prospecton, KwaZulu-Natal, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day.

• Supervise break duty, sport or a cultural activity each term
• Attend staff meetings, subject meetings and district workshops
• Give extra lessons to learners who are falling behind
• Prepare Grade 12 learners for prelims and the NSC exams
• Keep learner profiles and a tidy teacher file for subject advisers

• A B.Ed, or a degree plus PGCE, in the phase and subject you'll teach
• Good spoken and written command of the language of teaching
• You can manage a class of 35 or more without losing control
• Sound knowledge of CAPS and the assessment policy for your phase
• Clear record on the National Register for Sex Offenders and a police clearance
• Full SACE registration (provisional registration only for student or newly qualified teachers)

• Coaching experience in a major school sport
• Comfortable with Google Classroom or Microsoft Teams for homework

• Pension and medical aid for permanent posts
• Paid SACE CPTD workshops
• Housing allowance for SGB and state-funded posts where it applies
• School holidays in line with the school calendar

• Mention the extra-murals you can run, as smaller schools often choose the teacher who can also coach.
