The successful applicant will be able to teach Chinese and demonstrate a commitment to engaging learners and raising student achievement. You will be a reflective practitioner with a sound understanding of current educational practice, a willingness to contribute to curriculum innovation, and a genuine desire to mentor and support young people to become confident, capable communicators with an understanding of Aotearoa New Zealand’s place in a connected global community. A commitment to our whānau-based culture, restorative practices, and the co-curricular life of the college is expected. At BDSC, we value professional growth, collaboration, and innovation. This is an excellent opportunity to join a supportive Languages Learning Area and a learning community where both students and staff are encouraged to thrive.
