Otahuhu Intermediate

Principal/Tumuaki U5 plus concurrence for RTLB and South Auckland Attendance Service.

 
Our dedicated principal of sixteen years is moving to Taupo Intermediate School, and we are seeking a worthy successor to replace him.

We are an innovative Intermediate school with a roll of 330 young people. Our school is known for providing an environment and culture of inclusiveness, collaboration, and excitement.

We are seeking someone who is a very competent leader, has strong personal and interpersonal skills, excellent curriculum knowledge, proven ability to lead learning, and has a well-developed child-centred education philosophy. Having competence in administrative leadership would be an advantage as the school has responsibility for an RTLB Cluster and the South Auckland attendance service.

We are seeking an experienced, highly motivated, and energetic leader who will embrace the journey we are currently on and be committed to our school and community’s dreams and vision for young people.

We are embedding  Te Ao Maori into our school culture and have a warm and supportive relationship with whanau. At the start of 2024 it is expected the school will have three new bi-lingual classes for Māori, Tongan and Samoan Students.

 Otahuhu Intermediate is a well-resourced school, and we are fortunate to have a very dedicated and professional staff. Our vision is “Excellence for All”.
