Careers at Vaughan College
Teach where the student comes first.

What We Look For
What makes a teacher right for us.
Subject expertise is where we start. Beyond it, these are the qualities we see in the colleagues who fit the school best.
Patience as a teaching method
The students who change the most here often arrive with the longest catch-up ahead of them. We look for teachers who treat that catch-up as craft, rebuilding a foundation without making a student feel small for needing it rebuilt.Respect for diverse cultures
Our students come from across the GTA and around the world. We hire colleagues who see the academic value in a classroom that genuinely welcomes that range and draws on it in the teaching.A tight-knit community
We’re a small staff, and we make decisions together in the staff room. We look for colleagues who want to be part of that conversation.Values you act on
Our values shape how we teach, how we decide, and how we treat one another. What matters to us is how you live them day to day.
Working Here
What working here is like.
Classes here run at about ten students to a teacher, so our teachers work beside students at the desk rather than lecturing a hall. We look for people confident enough in their subject to slow down for the question that deserves it, and to say I don’t know when that’s the honest answer.
It helps to know the school before you write: read about Vaughan College.
Come to us with enthusiasm, dedication and a few years of your time, and we will provide you with the foundation to thrive in the world beyond school by unlocking your true potential.
