Careers

The McDonald College teacher

The McDonald College is an independent, co-educational school in North Strathfield. We teach the NESA Academic Curriculum from Years K–12.

Our Mission is to nurture individual journeys in an inclusive learning community that values intellectual inquiry and ethical decision-making.

We are unique in our offering of performing arts and performance sports. Disciplines include Acting, Classical Ballet, Dance, Music, Musical Theatre, Technical Production and Elite Tennis.

There’s a real sense of community at The McDonald College. We are a small but dedicated team. You’ll work alongside staff who have been at the top of the game and are still active in their chosen fields.

Students are at the heart of everything we do, and we share their passion for performance – whether on stage, on a court or in the classroom.
