If you're a passionate and purpose-driven educator looking to shape young minds and hearts in a Christ-centred school community, Carey Baptist College would love to hear from you.

The Opportunity

We are now welcoming Expressions of Interest from Primary School Teachers seeking opportunities for 2026 at our Forrestdale campus. Whether you’re an experienced teacher ready for a fresh start, a graduate looking for the right beginning, or someone currently working in another system looking to align your faith and your work, Carey could be the place for you.

We are growing, and with that growth comes opportunities for teachers who want more than just a classroom, they want to make a difference in the lives of children, in a community that values connection, kindness, and calling.

Who We're Looking For

We’re seeking Primary educators who:

• Are committed to teaching from a Christian worldview and embodying Christ-like character
• Have (or will hold) registration with the TRBWA by 2026
• Are passionate about delivering excellent learning experiences that grow both academic ability and personal character
• Value collaboration, curiosity, and creativity in the classroom
• Are excited by the opportunity to join a growing school community that’s deeply relational and mission-focused

Why Carey?

Carey is more than a school. We’re a community of people on mission, shaping a world transformed by the love of God. Every classroom, every staffroom, and every playground is an opportunity to live out our core values of:

Kindness – a concern for others which compels us to act for their good
Courage – the willingness to act well in the face of uncertainty and fear
Respect – sensing and honouring the God-given worth in another
Humility – embracing a clear perspective of one’s place with God and others
Integrity – being honest and consistently living out our values

As part of the Carey Group, our schools offer innovative, supportive, and enriching educational environments that encourage staff to bring their whole selves to the work of formation and education.

What’s On Offer

• Full-time and part-time teaching roles for 2026
• Opportunities for early career, graduate, and experienced teachers
• Clear pathways for curriculum leadership, pastoral care, and specialist roles
• Supportive professional development and mentoring
• Strong, welcoming staff culture across both campuses
• A Christ-centred community where people matter

How to Express Interest

To register your interest, apply now with:

• A brief cover letter introducing yourself and your interest in Carey
