Teachers work with students across a spectrum of years and subjects on either an individual basis or in small groups.

Close date for application: 8 November 2024

The Northland unit is located in Walton Street, Whangarei and serves the Northland region from Wellsford to Kaeo and southern Hokianga.

NHS Northland unit teachers work with school age students who meet Northern Health School admission criteria, in both hospitals and the community. Education programmes are planned in association with staff of the student’s regular school and may include Te Aho O Te Kura Pounamu (Correspondence School) subjects. An ILP (Individual Learning Plan) is developed for each student in association with their school of enrolment, parents and any others who may be involved in their wellbeing.

NHS teachers visit students in their homes and depending on their health needs, students may attend a NHS student support centre or their school of enrolment on a part time basis. When the time is appropriate, the NHS teacher will help transition the student back to school on a full-time basis.

When visiting students in the community teachers have the use of a NHS vehicle; however should a vehicle be unavailable, teachers will be expected to use their own vehicle and be reimbursed according to the teacher’s collective agreement.

ICT is an integral part of Northern Health School’s administration, programme development and student record activities. Teachers in all our units must be prepared to use ICT extensively in the course of their work.

Teachers are responsible to the unit Associate Principal and supported by teacher aide/office administrator.
