Job description

Tarneit P-9 College is situated in the western suburbs of Melbourne in Wyndham. The College was established in 2013, commencing with an enrolment of 331 students and growing to 2376 students in 2023 slightly up on 2022 enrolments. In the past year, four new primary schools opened in the area that changed the college's designated enrolment boundary resulting in the number of foundation enrolments stabilising, however the number of students in Year 7 has increased significantly.  We anticipate that this will be the trend for another 2-3 years, after which the establishment of new secondary schools in the area will enable our numbers across the school to stabilise.


The College¿s vision is to provide a quality education which enables all students to progress by more than one year across all academic measures. We are committed to achieving continuous improvement of learning outcomes for all students and we are establishing a reputation for high academic achievement. The College also values its motto `Scientia Lumen Vitae¿ which means `knowledge is the light of life¿. The College strives for the highest standards in English and Mathematics and compliments this with quality programs in Science, The Arts, Physical Education and French. 

At Tarneit P-9 College the following values underpin the actions of our whole community:

¿            We value our learning.
¿            We are an inclusive school community.
¿            We are proud of ourselves, each other, and the school.
¿            We act and are responsible. 

The Tarneit community comprised of diverse family backgrounds, with 50% of the students coming from language backgrounds other than English. India, New Zealand, and Africa are the dominant regions of parents¿ birth. In addition, 1.24% of students are Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. The Student Family Occupation and Education Index of 0.3573 indicates our community comes from low to mid socio-economic backgrounds.  Approximately 3% of students are identified as having a disability and/or impairment and 1.33% are from refugee backgrounds. In 2023, the College had 180 teaching staff with a full-time equivalent of 156.5 and 61 non-teaching staff with a full-time equivalent of 47.7.  This includes primary classroom and subject teachers, intervention teachers, secondary specialised subject teachers, administration support, classroom educational support, technical support, Leading Teachers/Learning Specialists, 9 Assistant Principals, and a principal. 

Tarneit P-9 College provides a comprehensive curriculum for students from years Prep to 9. We are focused on delivering a curriculum that promotes and develops high level literacy and numeracy skills, along with higher order thinking skills. The College is forming strong partnerships with the local kindergartens and Tarneit Senior College to support student transition from K-12. As students¿ progress through school, the curriculum design allows for a variety of subjects to be offered, ensuring that students have opportunities to pursue their own pathway.

The College recognises the importance of the home/school relationships and encourages parent participation at a range of different levels.  In partnership with parents and the community, staff members establish high expectations for all students as the standard and provide a safe, supportive environment where students can become productive, knowledgeable, and responsible citizens. 

The College has developed a Student Learning and Welfare support team, comprising of Psychologists, a Student Welfare Officer, Speech Pathologist and Assistant Principals. The College also works closely with the Wyndham Student Support Services and local organisations to provide a range of supports and interventions for students and their families. The School Wide Positive Behaviour initiative underpins Tarneit P-9 College¿s approach to wellbeing. The school community has a strong focus on explicitly teaching students the expected behaviours and attitudes aligned with the College values.

The rapid growth of the school community has seen a quick expansion of facilities. The College has a state of the art, two storey building for our secondary students, including specialist spaces for science, the arts, technology and STEM. We also have a large senior library, double basketball court and synthetic soccer/rugby field. The College has also prioritised the development of our grounds, including a fence around the perimeter, grassed play areas, artificial turf areas, playgrounds and a range of shading and seating. The College also integrates the latest technology as a tool to support learning. Interactive whiteboards are installed throughout the main building and LCD screens throughout the other learning spaces. Students in Year 3 to 9 participate in a one-to-one device program and all learning spaces have access to wireless connectivity.
