placeDunedin calendar_month 

Looking for greater flexibility in your teaching career?

If you're a qualified ECE or Primary teacher with current NZ registration, we have casual teaching opportunities across our BestStart centres in Dunedin and Mosgiel.

This is your chance to work when it suits you, whether you're balancing study, family life, or simply want to explore different learning environments without committing to a permanent role right away.

Why Dunedin?

Set against a backdrop of rolling hills and rugged coastlines, Dunedin blends historic charm with creative energy. With its lively student scene, cultural institutions, and easy access to nature, the city offers the best of both worlds, urban life and natural beauty.

Our four BestStart centres include two that follow the Montessori philosophy, giving you the opportunity to experience a range of teaching approaches.

What the role involves:

  • Supporting classroom routines and activities
  • Adapting to new environments with a positive and proactive mindset
  • Bringing your unique strengths to enrich each centre you visit
  • Building meaningful relationships with tamariki, whanau, and staff

What we're looking for:

  • NZ Qualified and Registered Teachers (Primary or ECE)
  • Enthusiastic educators who enjoy variety and bring a collaborative attitude
  • Individuals eligible to work in NZ and holding any required NZQA endorsements

What we offer you:

  • A supportive and professional team environment
  • Ongoing learning and career development opportunities
  • A chance to explore different centre cultures before settling into something more permanent (if desired)

Whether you're new to the profession or looking to re-enter the workforce, reliever work with BestStart offers flexibility, variety, and the chance to make a real difference in the lives of young learners.
