Information for applicants

Yulara is 1 of 5 major centres in the NT. We are positioned just outside the beautiful Uluṟu Kata Tjuṯa National Park and are close to the airport which connects to Sydney and Melbourne all year round and during peak season opens up to more locations such as Brisbane and Cairns. Yulara gets all the benefits of working with students, families and stakeholders of Mutitjulu but also being able to have the opportunity to enjoy the perks of living near a multicultural resort. As staff don’t live in the community, relationships can be slower to develop but as long as people are willing to put in work outside of the school environment with football games, being present at Community events or visiting Headspace and other services used by the students, these can built upon.

No visa sponsorship available.

Our must haves:

• A willingness to learn and be open to feedback - from Community and leadership
• Cultural sensitivity and awareness
• Some remote experience would be ideal - but not a deal breaker if not
• Experience in planning and delivering integrated units in multi years class (ideal but not a necessity)
• A willingness to do duties beyond classroom teaching - Community events, On Country events etc.

Further information

All applicants must be registered with the Teacher Registration Board of the Northern Territory and have a current Working with Children Notice (Ochre Card) from SAFE NT.
