Teaching as your next career
Are you thinking of embarking on a journey of studies to become a teacher?
Think about Pymble as a future career destination for early learning teachers, primary-trained teachers and secondary school teachers across all subject areas.
At Pymble Ladies’ College, almost 10% of our teachers started their careers in professions outside the education sector before embracing a teaching career.
We have teachers and leaders among our staff who were previously engineers, lawyers, sales managers, pharmacists, scientists and criminologists.
They came to Pymble due to a belief in the value and empowerment inherent in a world-class education, a sense of vocation, a desire to make a difference in the lives of girls and young women and a belief that teachers can change the world.
“Career change teachers have the potential to make unique and significant contributions to student learning and engagement in and beyond school….bringing diversity and life experience to the classroom”
(Career Change Teachers: Bringing Work and Life Experience to the Classroom) Meera Varadharajan and John Buchanan 2021)
