About the Opportunity

We are seeking a thoughtful, organized, and creative teacher to lead a small, mixed-age group of students in a private micro-academy near Woodstock.

Our approach combines core academic learning with hands-on activities, outdoor exploration, and farm-based experiences. This role offers the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with students, adapt lessons to their individual needs, and help shape a close-knit learning community.

- Connect academic learning with practical projects, outdoor exploration, and farm-based experiences.
- Establish classroom routines that support engagement, independence, kindness, and respect.
- Assess student learning, maintain progress records, and communicate regularly with families.




- Work collaboratively with an educational assistant and academy leadership.
- Follow school policies for supervision, student safety, incident documentation, and timely communication of concerns.
- Use scheduled preparation time to develop lessons, organize materials, and collaborate with the team.

What You’ll Bring

- Ontario Certified Teacher (OCT) designation preferred; candidates with relevant teaching qualifications or substantial classroom experience will also be considered.
- Experience planning and delivering instruction for students with different learning needs.
- Solid classroom management, organization, and communication skills.
- Sound judgment, reliability, and a collaborative approach.
- Comfort leading outdoor learning activities in a farm-based setting.
- Experience in mixed-age classrooms, alternative education, or experiential learning is an asset.
