The Opportunity
Carey Baptist College Forrestdale, a private coeducational Christian school with open enrolment, is seeking a passionate and skilled Science & Humanities Teacher to join our dynamic team for Term 4, 2025. This role is ideally suited for a dedicated educator who thrives on building strong relationships with students in Years 7–10, delivering engaging and inquiry-based lessons, and inspiring curiosity about the world in both the sciences and the humanities.

Key responsibilities include:
•
Delivering engaging and inquiry-based Science and Humanities lessons for Years 7–10.
