A school is built on the strength of its people.

Great people make great schools. People create culture.

At Ivanhoe Grammar School, our people create a culture of belonging — a place where ideas are heard and supported, where collaboration is valued and where individuals are encouraged to grow. As a values-driven, co-educational independent school, we are committed to fostering a community where students and staff can continually become the best version of themselves.

While there may not always be a current vacancy, we are always seeking great Primary teachers who are passionate about education and interested in contributing to the life of the School. This may include classroom teachers, individual needs teachers or specialist teachers in areas such as Art, STEM, Sport or Languages. If you are an educator who would like to be considered for future opportunities in Primary, we invite you to submit an Expression of Interest.
