Change Lives — Including Your Own

PLEASE NOTE This information relates to 2026. Information for 2027 will be published here in due course. You can also keep an eye on The Teachers’ Institute for information.

Are you ready to inspire the next generation — and discover a career with real purpose?

Westlake Girls High School is looking for future educators to join us in 2026 through The Teachers’ Institute. This is your opportunity to step into a vibrant, high-achieving school community while working towards a Postgraduate Diploma in Teaching.

You’ll gain hands-on classroom experience from day one, supported by expert mentoring and a collaborative team environment. It’s the perfect launchpad for a fulfilling career — especially for those ready to bring the wisdom of life and work experience into the classroom.

We’re particularly keen to hear from career changers — people who are ready to give back to their community and shape the future. At Westlake Girls, you’ll enjoy all the advantages of an all-girls school environment, proven to empower young women to thrive.

We’re looking for dynamic, forward-thinking individuals who are ready to lead, inspire, and make a lasting impact.
