Are you an innovative teacher ready to inspire the next generation of creators? Kapiti College is seeking a passionate teacher of textiles and fashion to join our well-resourced Technology department. Our vision statement is "Piki tahi, eke tahi"—climb together, achieve together. We nurture well-being in a caring whānau, inspiring learners to pursue excellence and leave with the skills to thrive. Our direction is anchored by our four Pou: Pou 1: Excellence and Achievement – Fostering excellence in a supportive environment to equip students for the future. Pou 2: Well-being and Belonging – Creating a safe, inclusive space where everyone feels pride and belonging. Pou 3: Whānau and Community Partnerships – Building strong links with whānau, mana whenua, and the community. Pou 4: Cultural Growth – Celebrating diversity while embedding Mātauranga Māori and Parihaka Mai Ai values. This is a permanent, full-time (1.0 FTE) position starting on January 27, Term 1, 2027. While textiles and fashion is the primary focus, the applicant must be a versatile practitioner. To complete a 1.0 FTE timetable, please clearly state any other curriculum areas you can teach (e.g., Food Technology, DVC, or other core subjects would be an advantage).
