Rathdown is an especially vibrant and attractive place in which to teach and successful candidates will very much enjoy being part of our energetic, positive and enthusiastic staff team. With small class sizes, highly-motivated learners and a total cohort of approximately four hundred students, you will discover
that we offer a remarkably personal education here – students talk about a sense of belonging that is unique to Rathdown. You will quickly get to know everyone here very closely as you become immersed in a school community that is proud to set high standards and aim for excellence, while at the same time making the teaching of kindness and decency the priority.

Rathdown is experiencing a big surge in demand and hence we are looking to fill these new additional positions. Consequently, they represent a unique opportunity for teachers to establish themselves in the school as it develops, with genuine chances of achieving a long-term career and better than usual
promotional prospects. On top of the main teaching salary, there is also the potential to earn additional income coaching sports, leading clubs or supervising evening study.

Closing date for receipt of applications is Friday 27th March, but early applications are greatly appreciated. Short-listing will apply.
