Commencing 2027

Trinity Grammar School’s commitment to academic excellence, pastoral care, and participation in a breadth of sporting and co-curricular activities, including the creative and performing arts, develops the talents of individual boys in mind, body and spirit. The School offers a wide-ranging curriculum that is delivered by motivated, caring staff accessing exceptional facilities and resources. Trinity has a proud tradition of educational excellence, character formation and fostering creativity, confidence and communication through the arts. In Stage 6, Trinity offers both the HSC and International Baccalaureate Diploma Program as credential pathways.

We are seeking an outstanding and enthusiastic Drama Teacher to join our vibrant and highly successful Drama Faculty in 2027.

This is an exciting opportunity for a passionate educator to work within a collegial and high-performing Faculty that values creativity, artistic excellence and student-centred learning. Our Drama Department provides a vibrant Drama and Filmmaking curriculum across Stages 4-6, developing the technical, creative and academic capabilities students need to excel in HSC Drama, IB Film and IB Theatre. Our Drama program enjoys strong student engagement and achievement, with opportunities to contribute to classroom teaching, productions, performance opportunities and the broader artistic life of the School.

Whether you are an experienced Drama educator looking to further develop your career or an emerging teacher seeking exceptional professional support and mentorship, Trinity offers a rewarding environment where teachers are encouraged to innovate, collaborate and inspire. 

We are looking for educators who are passionate about cultivating creativity, communication skills and confidence in young people, while fostering a genuine appreciation for performance, storytelling and the dramatic arts. The capacity or willingness to teach Film in the International Baccalaureate may be considered an advantage. If you are seeking a role that will challenge and develop you professionally while allowing you to make a meaningful contribution to students' lives, we would love to hear from you.

Opportunities for Leadership

For candidates with relevant experience and a passion for student wellbeing, there may also be opportunities to contribute to the School’s Pastoral Care Program through formal or informal pastoral leadership responsibilities. This provides an exciting pathway to broaden your impact beyond the classroom, build meaningful relationships with students and contribute to their academic, social and personal development.
