Teaching in rural and remote NSW offers exceptional opportunities for both experienced and beginning teachers. It is a rewarding lifestyle choice that can give you numerous
opportunities to get involved in the wider community.
The NSW Department of Education offers a range of incentive benefits to teachers who accept positions in rural or remote schools. Depending on the school location, these
may include additional training and development days, one week of additional summer vacation for schools in the western areas of NSW, rental subsidy of up to 90% in the
most isolated locations and 70% in some other isolated locations, and a number of locality allowances such as a climatic allowance, an isolation from goods and services
allowance, vacation travel expenses, reimbursement of certain expenses related to medical or dental treatment and an allowance for
dependents. The allowances are paid in
addition to your salary.
The benefits vary from school to school. The online benefits calculator provides additional information about allowances and incentives for individual schools and school
education areas.
