Job Description

Teach at an independent primary school in Ermelo where your planning, marking and patience all count. Someone who likes a bit of variety, but also likes doing things the right way, will enjoy this.

Home base is an independent primary school on the Ermelo side of Mpumalanga. The first two weeks are spent shadowing someone experienced.

The work, day to day

  • Use data projectors, smartboards or tablets where the school has them
  • Plan weekly lessons against the CAPS annual teaching plan
  • Capture marks on SA-SAMS or the school's reporting platform before deadlines
  • Keep learner profiles and a tidy teacher file for subject advisers
  • Meet parents to discuss progress, behaviour and support plans
  • Give extra lessons to learners who are falling behind

What you need

  • You can manage a class of 35 or more without losing control
  • At least 1 year of classroom teaching, including teaching practice
  • Good spoken and written command of the language of teaching
  • Full SACE registration (provisional registration only for student or newly qualified teachers)
  • Clear record on the National Register for Sex Offenders and a police clearance
  • A B.Ed, or a degree plus PGCE, in the phase and subject you'll teach

On offer

  • Paid SACE CPTD workshops
  • Housing allowance for SGB and state-funded posts where it applies
  • Pension and medical aid for permanent posts
  • Fee discount for your own children at independent schools

Applying, step by step

  1. Make sure the role, the hours and working in Ermelo really suit you before you apply.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): two recent lesson plans you wrote yourself, police clearance issued in the last 6 months plus certified copies of your teaching qualification and academic record.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 9 working days, usually by phone.
