Casual Relief Teacher, Junior School

About BGS

Founded in 1882, Brighton Grammar is an Anglican school passionate about developing, inspiring and guiding each boy to achieve his personal best in every way. The School’s cutting-edge teaching and learning techniques, supported by our in-house research centre, attract the best minds in education.

Everything we do in the Junior School supports the belief that for a boy to thrive in his education he must be happy and feel a sense of connectedness. As a staff member in our Junior School, you will play an active role in supporting the development of our young men. Each boy is supported by his classmates, classroom teachers, Year Level Coordinator, specialist teachers and the school counsellor, who work together to ensure each boy finds his place in our school. Every student also belongs to a House and throughout the year is involved in a range of competitions – athletics, cross-country, swimming, poetry, maths, spelling, trivia and music. At BGS, you will have the opportunity to be involved in all aspects of school life.
