About the School:
Chapel Hill State School has been operating since 1987 and has a long and proud tradition of providing excellent quality public education. Since opening, the school has grown to over 800 students. While the school is a larger school, it has a strong sense of community not unlike a small country-town while also offering individual attention and diverse opportunities for its students.
The biggest advantage of Chapel Hill State School is that we can offer an extensive range of in-class and out-of-class programs to engage and support our learners. Chapel Hill State School produces the highest possible academic, sporting and instrumental and educational outcomes for a full range of students.
The successful applicant will have excellent skills as an instructional leader with strong school-based project management in order to deliver positive outcomes while also maintaining a supportive and positive work culture.
