Hello! We are always on the lookout for caring and enthusiastic individuals to join the Clavis Community. For us, a great educator starts with someone who loves working with children, understands that each child learns in their own ways, knows the critical importance of developing strong relationships with each student, collaborates well with all colleagues, and has a growth mindset for their ongoing personal and professional development.

If you think Clavis is the right school for you and you have something to offer our amazing students, please consider applying. We offer a competitive salary dependent on experience that is above government schools and includes health care, transportation allowance, discounted tuition fees, and pension contributions. Professional development and training is important to us and we do weekly workshops and support staff doing local or international professional learning regularly.
