The Auckland West unit is located at 60 Khyber Pass Road, Grafton, Auckland city fringe. This unit covers the wider West Auckland region from the Riverhead and the Kaipara through to Avondale. NHS Auckland West unit teachers work with school age students in the community who meet Northern Health School admission criteria. Education programmes are planned in association with staff at the student's regular school, with advice from medical professionals, and may include Te Aho O Te Kura Pounamu (Correspondence School) subjects. An ILP (Individual Learning Plan) is developed for each student in association with their school of enrolment, parents and any others who may be involved in their wellbeing. NHS teachers work with students in a variety of locations, depending on their health needs. Students may attend NHS student support centre classrooms, their school of enrolment, or be visited at home, or other community locations. When the student is ready, the NHS teacher will help transition the student back to school, or to employment or tertiary study. When visiting students in the community teachers have the use of NHS vehicles; however, should a vehicle be unavailable, teachers will be expected to use their own vehicle and be reimbursed according to the teacher's collective agreement.

Teachers in all school units must be prepared to use ICT extensively in the course of their work. Teachers are responsible to the unit associate principal and supported by a teacher aide/office administrator. Download the full job description #J-18808-Ljbffr
