Jobs in Independent Schools in the Northern Territory
AISNT is not an employing agency for its Member Schools, nor does it have any part in the selection and appointment of staff to positions in Independent Schools. All appointments are managed by the individual school or school's system.
Unique Job Opportunities
The Northern Territory is an exciting place to work. Independent Schools in the Northern Territory offer choice and diversity.
Independent Schools are always interested to hear from high quality candidates seeking employment.
The Northern Territory is one of the most exciting and rewarding places in which an educator can work. Whether you are a first year teacher or a highly experienced principal, Independent Schools in the NT provide challenges, stimulation, and an opportunity to make a difference.
Our schools are highly diverse. There are large stand-alone Independent schools in Darwin, Alice Springs and small schools in remote communities. Many schools have children from a wide range of ethnic backgrounds. Other schools have wholly Aboriginal enrolments – but given that there are more than 100 Aboriginal languages and dialects spoken within the Territory, it should also be noted that there are large linguistic and cultural differences between many of these schools.
If you are working and living in Darwin/Palmerston or Alice Springs, you will have access to the convenience and comforts of any other Australian urban centre, albeit with a pace of life that is more relaxed than in the capital cities. If you are living and working in a remote community your lifestyle will be markedly different to city life – see below.
