Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of young people? Curious about where your skills and experience could take you?

Y Schools Queensland is a Special Assistance School supporting young people in Years 7–12 who have disengaged, or are at risk of disengaging, from mainstream education. Our approach combines education with personalised wellbeing support, helping students reconnect with learning, build confidence and work towards brighter futures.

We were recently awarded as a 5-Star Employer of Choice, and an Innovative School 2026 by The Educator, with our Director, Angela Waugh, named in the 2026 Hot List.
