Steiner Kindergarten Manager

Full time, Permanent We are a well-established Steiner kindergarten set in the beautiful grounds of the Dunedin Steiner School. The kindergarten has three rooms for children aged 3 to 6 years of age and a playgroup for younger children and their parents. This is an exciting time for the kindergarten and school with plans for growth and the development of new kindergarten buildings on the site. The kindergarten manager is the operational and pedagogical leader of the special character Steiner kindergarten. The role also works closely in the whole school management team to give effect to strategies for the wider kindergarten/school community. The manager works alongside the other teachers, delegating management tasks according to staff skills and availability. The teachers work in a collaborative management structure where responsibilities are shared, and decisions are reached through consensus. The manager will have teaching hours in the kindergarten and also be a part of the wider school management team. As enrolments increase the post-holder will focus more on management. The person must be an ECE registered teacher who is eligible to work in NZ. A commitment to working with the Steiner special character is essential. #J-18808-Ljbffr
