Teaching Employment Opportunities

Catholic education in NSW is socio-economically and geographically diverse, educating over 268,000 students across 592 systemic and ‘non-systemic’ schools. Catholic education provides a mixture of primary and secondary schools, combined K-12 schools, special schools and special assistance schools. Some schools also operate early childhood education and care and other prior to school services as part of their offering.
