About this job

Hume Anglican Grammar – About the school:

With growth comes opportunity.  Advance your career! 

Hume Anglican Grammar is a multi-campus co-educational Anglican Diocesan School offering education from Prep to Year 12 in the Northern growth corridor of Melbourne.   

  • Hume has an open enrolment policy so educates children from many faiths and with a diverse range of backgrounds and abilities. 
  • The School aspires to develop young people who are kind, creative, inquiring, socially and emotionally at ease, and who strive to achieve their personal best in all their endeavours. 
  • In 2025, the School will have 2,960 students and employ some 290 staff - 195 teaching and 95 non-teaching. The student enrolment at each campus is at Mt Ridley 1,448, Donnybrook 1,036 and Kalkallo 476. 
  • Ultimately at capacity, Hume will have 3,640 students (Mt Ridley 1,456, Donnybrook 1,596 and Kalkallo 588) with a corresponding cohort of teaching and general staff totalling 350 across its three campuses with plans for further expansion. 
  • As one of Victoria’s fastest growing schools, it is expected to be one of the largest non-government schools in the state, with plans for further expansion 

Hume provides its students with an education that prepares them for the challenges of life, equips them to contribute to the community in an environment based on Christian values and at a cost affordable to as many families as possible. By establishing high standards in all that we do, every student is encouraged and supported to discover and fulfil their unique potential.   

It is not by chance that we have young people who readily display warmth, humour and respect for one another and their teachers.
