The School

Hillbrook is a co-educational school of 900 students from Years 7-12, established in 1987. The School’s motto, “In Balance We Grow” underpins life at Hillbrook, which prides itself a focus on quality teaching and learning and a specialisation in the nurturing of adolescents. 

We aspire to provide all members of our staff and student body with support in a community environment. Hillbrook staff are encouraged to become involved in the collegial ethos of the school and are expected to support our core values.

The Position

Learning Support at Hillbrook is based around an inclusive model and delivered by informed and conscientious classroom teachers and support staff.  For some students who require additional support beyond the teacher and classroom – Hillbrook students are supported through the Enrichment Centre.  The aim of the centre is to facilitate access to the mainstream curriculum for students with additional learning and/or social emotional needs from Years 7 – 12.

Our students are encouraged to adopt a growth mindset and staff aim to build capacity not dependency. The team currently consists of a full-time Department Coordinator, a full-time Learning Support Coordinator and two full time In-Class Support Officers each with a primary focus on either Literacy or Numeracy. 

The position is part time, term time, 32.5 hours per week (8:30am to 3:30pm Monday to Friday).
